Track start automatically.

Hi Boyan,

I've just tried running TMJ-Mobile on the N95 emulator and there is something weird going on that is preventing it from storing the track, as you've found. I'm looking into it, will post again here later...

Cheers,
Stephen

Hello Stephen,

Thanks for fix. I've tested this version and it WORKS. I didn't have much time so I've walked about 500m.

When I will have more time I will tested more.

Best regards, Boyan from Slovenia.

Hi Boyan,

" I found few new bugs ( I think) . I made a track ( 4,15km with car) with 24points. All OK. Then I use tool "Convert Track to Route. When I look at route I can see Route length 4.05 km ( not 4.15) and only 22 points. "

The 'Convert Track to Route' function doesn't necessarily create a new routepoint for every trackpoint, it just tries to pick out enough trackpoints to be able to roughly approximate the track. A track could potentially have 100s or even 1000s of points that may each be only a few metres apart, whereas for a route you only really need to have points that are spaced every 50 metres or more (for motorway driving even routepoint spacing of 1km could be sufficient).

" Then I clear this route but I still can see route length on the screeen. I can't clear that , except I exit app. "

Hmmm, I'm not sure whether this is a bug or not. After you cleared the route was it still being displayed in red or blue? (If its blue then this is just the underlying track - you'll need to clear this separately). If red, then it might be a bug, can you confirm that it always does this. After restarting is it still visible?

" Please tell me how works this option route.
When I made some walk route ( for example 2km). I start at point A and I also start track. When I finished on end point B, I want to go back on the same way ( route). "

Think of a route as simply a number of individual waypoints that you are trying to reach, one after the other. When the currently selected routepoint has been reached the next one in the sequence will be selected and so on. Use the [fire] key on the Route page to select the starting routepoint, or press 3 a second time to quickly selected the nearest routepoint to your current location. When a routepoint is selected then the route becomes 'active'.

" I think I must convert track to route and then...? I try this way. I klick on number 3 and to menu button, and "reverse entire route" . Is this OK? "

Yes thats right. Don't forget to then make the route active by selecting the first routepoint or pressing 3 again.


Hope this helps!

Regards,
Stephen
