Wishlist: FULLSCREEN mode & 100m bar scale at max. zoom in

Open powerrackman opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi Pygmalion69,

awesome app for the outdoors, I use it on all the time. 2 wishes:

  • A major wish would be a true fullscreen mode in order to hide the green bar on top & the system bar with notifications, as - especially in horizontal screen mode - there is so much of the map hidden due to those large, green bars. The best way would be to include the choice in the options to activate full screen mode like with epub-reading-apps à la FBReader or Readera. Then by pressing in the middle of the screen, the bar visibility can be toggled on/off [or just set fullscreen as standard], but pure map moving or zooming in/out would only show the map in fullscreen mode [like in the browser version of opentopomap]. Every square millimeter of the screen counts, thus looking at and navigating through opentopomap in fullscreen would be fantastic!

  • A minor issue is the fact that when I zoom in at maximum, the bar scale shows me a reference distance between 124m and 127m, very strange. Not sure if this is because of the size of my screen or some obscure imperial system conversation, but as we talk metric here, a 100m bar scale at maximum zoom no matter the screen size would be very handy in order to know what 100m represent on the map. I think the maximum zoom value of the map details is fixed, thus shortening the bar would do the trick, yet as the displayed bar scale value changes, I'm not sure if this is a bug easy to be solved. But again, this is a minor issue, fullscreen is the true missing feature of your fantastic app in my eyes.

Thank you so much, Pygmalion69!

Best, powerrackman
