-Offline routing engine BRouter offers much more sophisticated profile settings than any other services. Not only you can add more conditions relevant to various means of transport,
+BRouter offers many more routing profiles with additional configuration:

+  * rename the in-app profile, if necessary
-BRouter can be used also with custom (non-Locus) profiles which is a bit advanced problematics. More info can be found [[https://github.com/poutnikl/Brouter-profiles/wiki|here >>]]
+<WRAP center round tip>
+**External profiles** - besides the BRouter profiles embedded directly in Locus, it is also possible to use profiles provided by BRouter developer or by other users. **[[https://github.com/poutnikl/Brouter-profiles/wiki|Poutnik's GitHub page]]** provides further information as well as many ready-to-use profiles which should be downloaded and placed in the directory **/Locus/router/profiles2**.

 {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset02.png?nolink |}}
 Navigation route is recalculated automatically if the deviation from the former route is greater than the parameter **distance for recalculation**. If you don't follow the recalculated route, Locus Map will recalculate it **once again after 30 seconds**. You will need **internet connection** in case an **online routing service** is selected (e.g. GraphHopper Online or YOURS). For **[[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:point-to-point#offline_navigation|offline routing]]** it is necessary to additionally download and install **BRouter** co-app and download **offline routing data**. There are 3 options:
@@ Line 57: / Line 58: @@
   * **Route priority**  - used when you deviate from the original line and want to get back to it - Locus navigates you to the original line as soon as possible and on the nearest place - the line (route) matters.

+==== MANUAL ====
 Settings for manual recalculation that can be triggered from **[[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation#control_menu|navigation panel]]**.
-==== Out of route notification ====
+===== Out of route notification =====
 Check this option if you want Locus Map to warn you when you **accidentally leave your route**. Set the alert **distance**, alert **repetition** and **type of sound** (beep, voice…):\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset03.png?nolink |}}
+===== Line style =====
+{{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset05.png?nolink |}}
+  * **Basic** - in default settings, the line width and color it is optimized for the best visibility. Anyway, it is possible to change them.
+  * **Custom** - you can set all parameters of the line style Locus Map offers in its **[[manual:user_guide:tracks:management#style_editor|line style editor]]**
+  * **Keep original** - when you navigate an already existing route (imported, planned, recorded track...) and you want to maintain its line style during navigation, select this option.
+===== Advanced settings =====
+==== Strict route following ====
+Each route consists of a chain of routepoints (sort of breadcrumbs). This option navigates strictly from one routepoint to another. When you make a deviation, it tries to get you to the last omitted routepoint.\\ <WRAP important round>Keep in mind that this feature may come into conflict with your intentions e.g. when making unwanted detour and part of the original route is not accessible - it will keep navigating you to the first missed routepoint. If you want to skip a routepoint, switch it manually to the next **nearest point** in the [[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation#navigation_control_menu|Navigation control menu]]. \\ \\ **This feature does not work when Auto-recalculation with Point priority is ON**.</WRAP>
+==== Maximum allowed deviation ====
-==== Advanced settings ====
+Sets maximum allowed deviation from the route before switching navigation to guidance

+Ignores slight inaccuracies of GPS positioning and maintains the navigation cursor position on the navigated route
-  * **Maximum allowed deviation**  - sets maximum allowed deviation from the route before switching navigation to guidance
+==== Frequency of commands ====
-  * **Snap to route** - ignores slight inaccuracies of GPS positioning and maintains the navigation cursor position on the navigated route
-  * **Frequency of commands**  - manually drawn or imported routes do not contain navigation commands so when you select navigation along such a route, Locus has to generate the navigation commands according to the shape of the line. This setting defines how often you are prompted of direction changes on the route: none - low - medium - high.
-  * **Two commands at once**  - when two turns of a route follow closely, Locus Map notifies of both of them at once. Unchecking divides the navigation command into two separate ones.
-  * **Stop navigation at route finish** - when checked, the navigation is stopped and navigation panel removed when you get to the finish of your route
-  * **Navigation cursors** - here you can select set of navigation cursors and set their size (50%-400%)
