-There are two ways how to import items:
-  * **temporary import** - by **tapping an item** it highlights and its content unpacks to the application temporary directory to display or work with. It is possible to unpack other files at once. Re-tapping reverses this procedure and all changes are discarded. Some items are temporarily imported also by a ordinary import with the option "//Only display//" checked. All temporarily imported objects can be removed by the //Clear// button.\\ \\ {{ :manual:user_guide:items:items2.png?nolink |}}
+Activating a map item means above all displaying it on the map. There are two categories of map items activation:
-  * **permanent import** - select **Import** from the item action menu, Locus Map screens the imported file and designs the import dialog according to its content - points, tracks or both. Then the process goes on like in the [[manual:user_guide:points:import|points]] or [[manual:user_guide:tracks:import|track import]] and imported objects appear on the map and in the folder structure of point resp. track tabs of the **Data manager**.
+===== Temporary activation =====
+There are several options:
+  * **tapping**{{:manual:user_guide:ic_hide_alt.png?nolink&30}}**on the item line in folder**  - the icon changes to {{:manual:user_guide:ic_visibility_alt.png?nolink&30}}but you are not moved back to the map screen - you stay to activate more items \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:items:items6.png?nolink&  }}
+  * **tapping map preview box in the map item detail screen**  - this brings you directly to the main screen with the item centered on the map
+  * **tapping {{:manual:user_guide:ic_visibility_alt.png?nolink&30}}in the map item detail screen**- the icon changes to {{:manual:user_guide:ic_hide_alt.png?nolink&30}}and you stay in the map item detail screen. \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:items:items7.png?nolink&  }}
+**Re-tapping reverses this procedure - the map item is hidden.**<WRAP center round tip> Some items can be temporarily activated also by an ordinary **[[:manual:user_guide:functions:data_import|import]]**with the option //Only display//  checked. All temporarily activated objects can be removed by the //Hide temp map items//  in the Map items topbar menu. </WRAP>
+Active items can be browsed in **Active items**  part of the **[[:manual:user_guide:mainscr_lpanel|Content panel]]**. You can clearly view what items are loaded, browse their folders and you can easily change their opacity by selecting and moving the slider. **[[:manual:user_guide:mainscr_lpanel#active_items|More info >>]]**
+===== Permanent import =====
+Select **Import**  from the item action menu: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:items:items8.png?nolink&  }} \\ Locus Map screens the imported file and designs the import dialog according to its content - points, tracks or both. Then the process goes on like in the [[:manual:user_guide:points:import|points]] or [[:manual:user_guide:tracks:import|track import]] and imported objects appear on the map and in the folder structure of point resp. track tabs of the **Data manager**.
