You can move the map by clicking and dragging, and zoom using either the mouse wheel or the slider in the bottom left of the map. If a map tile is not available the tile will appear grey but the waypoints will still be displayed. This is more likely to happen when changing the default \ref geo_map_options.

You can move the map by clicking and dragging, and zoom using either the mouse wheel or the slider in the bottom left of the map. If a map tile is not available, the tile will appear grey but the waypoints will still be displayed. This is more likely to happen when changing the default \ref geo_map_options. Different types of waypoint will be displayed in different colors. You can use the key in the lower left to easily identify the type of each waypoint. Some types will also use different icons on the map. For example, individual track points will be displayed as smaller circles. The entire track will be highlighted when selecting an individual track point.
|
||||
|
||||
You can left click on a waypoint to highlight that waypoint and show a details pop-up in the upper right corner of the map. The details pop-up will be updated as you click on different waypoints. The data displayed will vary depending on the type of waypoint. For example, this is the endpoint of a GPS Route:

\subsection geo_filter Filtering
|
||||
|

The filters are displayed on the left side of the screen. The top filter lets you filter the waypoints based on timestamp. If enabled, you will only see waypoints with a timestamp within N days of the most recent waypoint (not the current date). When using this filter you can also choose whether you want to see waypoints with no timestamp.
