+ | ===== About ===== | ||
+ | Tracks import is used when you want to **work with tracks from outside of Locus** - websites, apps, add-ons etc. Either you choose the data yourselves or Locus Map receives them. | ||
+ | ===== 1. Launch import ===== | ||
+ | There are a few ways: | ||
+ | * **Menu > (more functions) > Import** - general import for [[manual: | ||
+ | * **Menu > Tracks > {{: | ||
+ | * **(Menu) > Tracks > any folder menu > Import** - imports directly into the selected folder\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== 2. Select the file to import ===== | ||
+ | **Locus file browser** opens the last used memory drive. **Importable files are in full color and are clickable** (more about supported formats see below):\\ {{ : | ||
+ | You can sort the files by **name, size and creation date**:\\ {{ : | ||
+ | Other available drives can be switched from the topbar menu:\\ {{ : | ||
+ | * **Locus Map directory** - the content of the app's main working directory | ||
+ | * **Local drives** - list of local memory drives (usually the Internal and external SD card code name) | ||
+ | * **Local** - the content of the app's main working directory | ||
+ | * **Dropbox** - contents of your Dropbox. Dropbox login is required when using the drive for the first time. Logout option is included. | ||
+ | * **Google Drive** | ||
+ | * **Remote file** - a field for inserting a URL of a remote file stored on the internet | ||
+ | ===== 3. Select where to import ===== | ||
+ | After selecting the file or receiving it from some external application or add-on Locus Map analyses it and modifies the import dialog according to the content - the dialog can process points or tracks or both of them at once. | ||
+ | ==== Track import dialog ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Appears when the imported file contains just tracks:\\ {{ : | ||
+ | * topbar displays the file name | ||
+ | * **Folder selector** - selects the folder into which the file will be imported. It is possible to create a new folder directly from the menu. If you start import from a //folder action menu// in //Tracks manager// it is already pre-selected. | ||
+ | * **Delete other tracks in folder** - removes all other tracks from the selected folder before the import | ||
+ | * **Use style of the folder** - imported track will take color, thickness, pattern etc. defined for the folder it is imported to | ||
+ | * **Display only (not save)** - tracks are just displayed on the map screen - useful for a quick preview of the imported file | ||
+ | * **Show on the map after import** - displays imported tracks on the map when the import is finished | ||
+ | * **Update elevation** - adds or updates the value of imported tracks' | ||
+ | * **Cancel** - aborts the action | ||
+ | * **Import** - confirms the action | ||
