5 | | == Track logging/recording == |
6 | | !ModRana supports track recording, diretly to a GPX file. This file can be named and logging and saving interval can be set directly from the logging menu. Logging can be paused or split, eq old log is saved and a new one is started imediately. If you entered a new name while logging was in progress, the next log will use it. All logs are saved to the log cathegory in tracklogs menu. |
7 | | |
8 | | === In which folder are logs stored ? === |
9 | | ==== Default location ==== |
10 | | By default, newly recorded tracklogs are stored in the tracklogs folder in modRana profile: |
11 | | |
12 | | {{{ |
13 | | ~/.modrana/tracklogs/logs/ |
14 | | }}} |
15 | | |
16 | | ==== N900 & N9 ==== |
17 | | Tracklogs are stored in the ''!MyDocs'' folder, that is accessible using mass storage if the device is connected to a computer with USB. |
18 | | |
19 | | {{{ |
20 | | /home/user/MyDocs/tracklogs/logs/ |
21 | | }}} |
22 | | |
23 | | NOTE: !ModRana can't record a tracklog while the mas storage mode is active, because the ''!MyDocs'' folder is not available for applications running on the device during this. |

| 5 | == GUI == |
| 6 | === Main menu button hiding === |
| 7 | !ModRana supports hiding of the main buttons, so they don't obstruct parts of the map. |
| 8 | This feature can be configured in '''menu->Options->view->hide main buttons''', the default is "hide after 15 seconds". |

| 12 | === Fullscreen toggle === |
| 13 | !ModRana can be set to a fullscreen mode. Fullscreen can be toggled with the appropriate button from the map screen. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | === New position indicator === |
| 16 | Old position indicator from Rana was replaced by a new [http://www.tangogps.org/ TangoGPS] inspired indicator. The immediate are of the current position is now better visible and for low speed, the direction is not show, as it is unreliable when the speed is too low. |

| 22 | === Notification support === |
| 23 | !ModRana has a support for displaying notifications. They are used to notify about important events, that are not readily visible from the state of the user interface, such as a batch download finishing. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | The modRana notification system is GUI toolkit independent and either draws the notifications by itself of uses the platform notification method, if available. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | === OSD information widgets === |
| 28 | The information widgets can be configured in '''user_config.conf''' in the main modRana folder. The configuration file is heavily self documenting, so it should be easy to personalize the widgets to your liking :) |
| 29 | |
| 30 | In the future, interactive widgets configuration directly from the GUI is planed. |

| 76 | === Transparent map overlay === |
| 77 | This feature can be activated in '''options -> map -> Map as overlay'''. Any map layer can be used as the background or overlay. Transparency can be set in the 25-100% range. 100% (fully opaque) should be used only for layers, that contain transparent areas. :) |

| 123 | == Routing & Navigation == |
| 124 | |
| 125 | === Online routing using Google Directions === |
| 126 | |
| 127 | Online routing in modRana uses Google Directions. Its an '''online''' search, so it '''won't work without Internet connectivity''' While searching for a route, the current mode is respected. For "walking mode" walking directions are selected, for "car mode", directions for a motor vehicles are used. Actually, all other modes than "walking"" currently get directions for motor vehicles. In '''options->Online routing''' toll and highway avoidance can be activated. |
| 128 | |
| 129 | Start and destination for the route can be sat on the map. It is also possible to route ''to'' and ''from'' the current position. !ModRana also supports address2address routing, POI search results and saved POI can be also used as routing destinations. |
