Let OsmAnd guide me (back) to the nearest point of a GPX track?

2020-08-12 Thread Claudia Svenson
Assume I load my own GPX track file and start following this track with my 
bicycle.

Then I temporarily leave this track to have a break in a nearby park of 
visit a friend.
Later I want to resume the route.

OsmAnd detects at this moment that I am not precisely on a track and want 
to direct me to the START of the whole track.
Thats bad - very bad.

How can I tell OsmAnd to (always automatically ) guide me to nearest point 
of the current track?

Re: Is it possible to change Theme/Skin in OsmAnd Android App?

2020-08-06 Thread Claudia Svenson
Hello Dmitry,

I cannot believe that there is really no guide on how to change the colors.
I appreciate OsmAnd very much and I want to avoid GooMaps but the 
colorization is ugly.
Less important elements of OsmAnd-maps are too (dark) colored.
This steals too much concentration.

So some little modifications would help a lot.

Is there really no table on a Wiki webpage which show the color element tag 
names in XML for the approx 20 map elements?
This couldn't be too difficult for the experience OsmAnd developers.

What make it for a sense to offer configuration through a config file like 
default.render.xml when no one knows how to configure it in detail?
Other software offer at this point even an advanced "Skin" or "Theme" 
Gallery with hundreds of customizations.

The given built-in Map Styles are not suitable for me.

Is there at least an official Feature Request email to the developers?

Thank you
Claudia

@Andy:

Thank you.
I had a look at the rendering configuration files.

I need only some changes to the default map style in "default.render.xml":

- Turn the beige color for urban houses areas into light grey
- turn orange color for main streets to yellow
- Make blue color for rivers and green color for forest a little bit more 
lighter

When I look now into default.render.xml file
where can I find the corresponding parameters/elements?

Is there a good (=with samples) tutorial for colorization changes?

Thank you
Claudia

How to load a GPX file and let OsmAnd navigate me in Android App?

2020-08-04 Thread Claudia Svenson
I have a *.gpx file with a certain bike track on my Android Smartphone.

I want to load it into OsmAnd App and let me follow this track (again).

How can I achieve this in detail?

I found no "Load gpx file" or similar option/menu
