Instructional video on the new elevation profile feature

You can. To set this up, first go to settings/OSM editing and fill in your OSM login and password. To upload a GPX (aka "track"), go to My Places/My tracks, locate the track and its menu button on the right and select Export. On Sunday, May 21, 2017 at 7:09:37 AM UTC-7, Mikolaj Machowski

How are you enabling GPX logging? How are you attempting to save it? And do you see the expected GPX file--the name should be a combination of its year, date and time--without being able to display it? Or are you not seeing any GPX files at all? On Sunday, September 17, 2017 at 10:39:05 PM

I'm not sure what "Others" is in this context. When you create a favorite, you can assign it a category of your own creation. And you can view all your favorites in My Places/My Favorites. (Does that help?) On Saturday, September 9, 2017 at 4:48:11 AM UTC-7, alpine14011970 wrote: > > What

Just a hunch, but I think the problem is that the underlying crowd-sourced OpenStreetMap data has streets, but not necessarily addresses.You'll run into the same limitation doing a search on openstreetmap.org, compared, say, with Google Maps. On Saturday, November 18, 2017 at 6:57:44 PM UTC-8,

Each marker in history must be cleared individually. I think the general idea is that, as these markers aren't displayed on the map, there's little need to clear them. On Tuesday, November 14, 2017 at 1:25:28 AM UTC-8, guy vanvuchelen wrote: > > After a while the map "history" is full of
