Oh, I see and checked out the wiki access is already open for everyone. I'm already testing there a little bit. Main topics can be:

This is a screenshot from an old Cruiser version @DIrgi - I think we should not invest time to describe outdated UI already at the very beginning... 😉 |

Don‘t blame on the picture. As I said, I‘m testing and btw this shot is done on my PC. No matter which Cruiser Version. I‘m running there a virtual Android OS where I can use the cruiser app for testing purposes 😉 |

Oh, that's bad. The pages cannot have sub menus. |

There seem to be possibilities - see my additions here: https://github.com/devemux86/cruiser/wiki/Unfortunately-NO-submenu--structure-possible @devemux86 - maybe you could habe a look and potentially install the mentioned module (if it is still working, the found link is from 2018)!?? |

As an example of what Wiki can do, we can see how the c:geo Wiki is structured. |

yes and there are submenus and a menu structure |

I edited the Wiki to add a menu with main categories and sub-menus:
Of course this menu is just a thought. 🙂 |

btw, I think collapse menus are better - what do you guys think? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

If the menus are not too many, it is probably better to expand them for easy viewing. |

I also like the expanded menus better:

Are you deleting the Discussions thread for a specific Cruiser release as soon as a new version is released? Reason for asking: I thought about adding a "version history" of Cruiser to the What's new-section in the Wiki, and wanted to link the release articles to these entries (see example of version 3.0.42). But I found out that currently only one thread is still available in Announcements - the one of 3.0.42. |

They are "closed" to not be visible. Should we do this? They can be found when search with the "is:closed" filter, like here. |

If the links work we can keep it like it is.
Just tried it - did you really not create an entry for 3.0.38 (3.0.35, 3.0.34) or are they somehow "vanished" to Nirvana? 😀 |

Sure, we can do this.
There were some intermediate releases with just fixes that are mentioned inside the main releases. (I am thinking of changing the versions from the next release for easier understanding) |

Nice to add in the wiki FAQ's ?
Long press on the map and find undo redo at the bottom of the menu dialog.
Long press route and set point (shaping or via). Press OK without moving the map. |

@DIrgi You deleted the next comment ? (was send by mail notification 30 apr 2024, 22:48 in the Cruiser Pro topic!)
https://github.com/devemux86/cruiser/wiki/How-to%3F The first contribution (Gets unnoticed without a marker NEW in the wiki ) will be aged soon by the next public version. |

Nice first contributions to the Wiki, thank you! Should we keep this "How to?" page in place, or move the content to the (existing, yet empty) "Frequently asked questions (FAQ)" section (like you already suggested earlier @0709wiwiwi)? Keep both "How to?" AND "FAQs" doesn't make much sense from my POV!?? |

In my opinion, one single volunteer person should take the lead in (re)organizing all submitted content. I think that should be arranged first of all. |

...and the Route planning guide 🗺️ I plan to re-install Cruiser on my spare (S9) phone for the full New User Experience so that I can take some notes to help with the "Startup" aspects of the Wiki. Something I did notice, it's more a GitHub thing - there's a link to this forum in Cruiser's "About" menu but the mobile-browser (Firefox) doesn't show all the menus/sections, so it's not immediately obviously there's a Wiki unless you tap the ... button. Once the Wiki is more populated, perhaps a "Help/Wiki" link in the App, too? |

@MotoUKRider thanks!
Indeed, we can do this. 👍 |

General comment / question to @devemux86... To create screenshots for the Wiki, it would make sense to obfuscate your real GPS position for data protection reasons. I have read in an app description (e.g. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lexa.fakegps) that the "real" GPS position cannot always be automatically restored after using such apps, but that workarounds (even with a duration of some days) are sometimes necessary. This should be avoided at any cost... Is there any recommended app to achieve this, Emux? |

I use my own simulator for mock locations and navigation, much more advanced than anything on Google Play. 🙂 Have you tried Lockito? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.dvilleneuve.lockito @0709wiwiwi seems to be using it in tests. |

Thanks for the tip with Lockito 👍 - seems to work like a charm... |

Indeed. You can set a track or also a one-point track.
You MUST than stop the replay in the Lockito app first !
The normal GPS position is then switched back on.
Anyway much better for such quick tests is what Locus offers. Locus (tap the gps icon & turn off getting location) briefly disconnects the app from the gps data source. Your map center (North up & center cross shown) then becomes your ''virtual'' gps position. By shifting the map position, you simulate to follow (deviate) a navigation track (with instructions) and quickly test any offtrack situation and the resulting (automatic) recalculation that way.
See the next video demo: https://youtu.be/r32a3VExhgg
An absolutely recommended and simple to use very usefull test tool. Top !
Providing this similarly in the Cruiser app would definitely be very useful too.

I have to say you did a really great job so far by establishing the wiki pages. Great job - Thanky to Emux, MotoUK and to the others who already added some parts. |
