-There are two ways how to import items:
-  * **temporary import** - by **tapping the name of an item** you can load it, i.e. make it visible on the map. The name changes color into red and the item is placed above the map. The item content unpacks to the application temporary directory to display or work with. It is possible to unpack more files at once. Re-tapping reverses this procedure and all changes are discarded. Some items can be 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:items.png?nolink |}}\\ \\ When an item is loaded a new **side-tab button** appears - by tapping it you open the **items browser**. You can clearly view what items are loaded and you can easily change their opacity by selecting and moving the slider\\ \\ {{ :manual:user_guide:items:items3.png?nolink |}}\\ \\ {{ :manual:user_guide:items:items4.png?nolink |}}\\ \\ {{ :manual:user_guide:items:items5.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**.
