[cita autor=kkolesar enlace=msg=60458 fecha=1779107769] no, el dispositivo estaba en modo vertical y apuntaba a la dirección de conducción. por eso estoy confundido por la falta de coincidencia de ambas líneas. [/cita]

Hello, I just performed a test and everything went well, saving the oscillations of the handlebars, the line where you look marked well. Doubts: how do you carry the device in the car? Standing or leaning on a surface? Look in the settings of sensors the position of the device, it may affect that configuration, another cause may be magnetic interference by some object on the dashboard. Greetings troNpo

Hello,

I bought OM-NG.
I Can't find the "Automatic Zoom" feature.
How it works? Does someone can help me?

Regards.

yes, I saw this settings for sensor and it is in accordance with phone position (leaning on surface)... I have no idea but anyway thnx for help.

[cita autor=kkolesar enlace=msg=60463 fecha=1779199563] Sí, vi esta configuración para el sensor y está de acuerdo con la posición del teléfono (apoyándose en la superficie)... No tengo ni idea, pero de todos modos, gracias por la ayuda. [/cita]

There is a very simple test to check if it is a function failure or interference on the phone. In the outdoor phone in hand you can turn the device and check if the line points in the same direction that the device points. Maybe in the car something interferes with the gyroscope / magnetic sensor of the device. Greetings

Buenos días Orux:

El Widget de la NG, no avisa cuando se crea un nuevo waypoint, se crea un nuevo segmento o se para o reanuda la grabación. Antes, cuando pulsabas en crear un nuevo waypoint por ejemplo, saltaba una notificación de unos segundos, indicándotelo, al igual que al crear un nuevo segmento. Ahora, tienes que irte a abrir la NG, para comprobar que efectivamente se han creado, con lo cual no tendría mucho sentido el widget. Tengo concedido a la NG, todos los permisos de notificaciones.

Un saludo y gracias por tu trabajo.

Hi Orux,

The Traditional Chinese translation has been updated with many corrections recently. Please help update it in the app. Thank you!

Hello,

The zoom in Oruxmaps-NG doesn't work like the zoom in Oruxmaps-GP.

When I press the volume down button in OM-NG, the zoom out works correctly.

However, if I press this button repeatedly, the same layer remains displayed. This makes the text indicators unreadable.

Is it a bug or I have missed something in the parameters?

Regards

Hello, check the settings :

Map > Settings >Zoom-Based Maps > Volume Zoom✅

Map > Settings >Zoom-Based Maps > Volume keys (only run digital zoom) ❌

I think you're using digital zoom. Greetings troNpo

Hello,
First in first : thank you for your help.
I don't use the same way to access to parameters. I use Global Settings/Maps/Zoom settings.
Therefore it seems I have got the good parameters (have a look to the screenshot:

To be more precise when I have met the zoom problem I have decided to import my previous working profile from OM-GP to OM-NG.
Same zoom problem.

Any idea of what's happening?

Regards.

I have the same settings, maybe the problem is, the settings that you have on Zoom by default, change the value to 100% restart the app and do the test

Hi,

Quote from: sguazt on May 15, 2026, 02:44:29 PMHi Tronpo,

I confirm that copying the oruxmapstracks.db file from GP to NG works. Now, in the NG, I can successfully see my previously recorded tracks.

However, photos in the tracks detail are still missing although they are present in the device storage:
- /Internal Storage/oruxmaps/pictures (GP version)
- /Internal Storage/Android/media/com.orux.oruxmapsNG/oruxmaps/pictures (NG version)

The check for broken links did not work.

Concerning the above issue, I fixed it by developing a small Python 3 script (see attached file).

Instead, the issue related to the "Immersive mode" (i.e., impossible to hide the top buttons when tapping on the maps), it still present. I hope, this will be solved in the next release of OruxMaps NG as, although not critical, it is quite annoying.

Thank you.
Marco

I'm glad you solved your problem with the links in the photos, professional solution to the script issue!! Regarding the top bar, it seems to be more of a conflict with the operating system of the phone's device. I have oppo LG and I have no problem with any. I hope it can be solved

Hello,

With default zoom at 100% OM-NG works fine. The layer changes every 2 times I press on volume - or volume +.
The problem is that with default zoom at 100% everything is to small. I'm not so young😬!
Any other idea? Is it a bug?
Perhaps the new option "zoom with speed" can be the cause.

Regards
