Hello,
First of all I'd like to thanks Mr Vaszquez for his incredible work.
I'm wondering why oruxmaps doesn't properly show the names of the segments. I'm using this gpx file : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bZ7QUOml3W3ewZas4qiuhX9sCDiPPygb/view?usp=drive_link
that uses this format " <trk>
<name>HRP Section 1</name>". However Oruxmaps uses generic names instead (segment 1 / 2 /3 etc). Why ?
Also I'm wondering if there is a way to measure a distance & altitude along the track/route instead of between 2 points connected by a straight line as currently ? It would be very useful.
Last thing I liked the "old" track page better because with the new one I can only see 3 tracks without scrolling (and I think for most of us, "type" and "difficulty" are almost always undefined, so it's cluttering the screen for nothing). Also I think for the sake of simplicity, a simple tap on a track without any tracks "checked" should open the track in the map viewer.
Thanks a lot for this great app !

I just realized that this function does exist, I'm surprised no one told me :p It's called "measure distances" in track/route tools. It even gives elapsed time if the route has timing data :) I don't think it should take into account the distance from the point to the track though (the straight lines). That would also avoid giving an inappropriate elapsed time in those cases.
I also discovered the "advanced meter" tool but it doesn't give total elevation data (even with dem files ofc). So this tool is a bit useless in the mountains unfortunately.
I'm still wondering why oruxmaps doesn't show actual segments names (see my previous post).
Thanks.
