 +==== Activation ==== 
 +  long press Locus **main menu button** 
 +  a new item - **Expert settings** - appears in Locus Map settings 
  
-  * This file is manually created when Locus starts for first (if not exist)Data are loaded at start and flushed in the end back to fileso if this file allow changing some settings that are also changeable in the application, settings will not be lost.+==== UI/UX ==== 
 +=== Open main menu by dragging ===

 +  * **Allow login over Google Play Services** - when switched offonly an e-mail login to Locus Store or Live Tracking is possible.
  
-===== Explanations of some parameters =====+FIXME TO BE CONTINUED... FIXME
  
-==== guiding_path_map_symbol ====+===== Configuration file =====
  
-This parameter allows to define very precisely, shape and size of guiding lineBest is to explain it on default parameter.+  * Since version 2.3.2 Locus Map offers advanced configuration options through //config.cfg// file stored in **Locus Map root directory** in your phone **memory**
  
-Baisc values are: **-8.0|-2.0|7.0|0.0|-8.0|2.0**+  This file is automatically created during Locus Map first start (if it does not exist from its previous installation)Data are loaded at start and stored back to file in the end, so even if this file allows changing some settings that are also changeable in the application, settings will not be lost.
  
-Imagine squared paper. Every two numbersmeans X and Y coordinates. So draw them. Result will be as on screen below. With same way, you may draw whatever symbol you want.+<WRAP center round info> 
 +As this method has become obsolete and is quite user unfriendlysettings included in this configuration file are going to be moved gradually to the **Expert settings** section above.
