Hello All,
I've just released RoadMap 1.1.0j at the garage. Sorry for the short release cycle. But aouto import of routes was easier to port over than I thought, and osso integration made a lot of other cool things feasible...
Roadmap 1.1.0j includes built in fetching of google routes by address or by selected locations. It also includes an option to get OSM maps of the current screen/view. All of this has been done to make the UI more intuitive.
To Get Maps of your current view-
1. long-click the screen and choose 'Get OSM Maps of Current View'. If you're connected, maps will auto download.
(Sometimes you may have to restart roadmap in order to see the new maps.)
To Get a route by addresses-
1. Goto- Menu->File->Get google route by address'
2. Enter the start and destination (The start will be autopopulated with your GPS info if available.)
3. Make sure you're connected to the Internet and click 'Okay'.
To get a route from the map screen-
1. On the map, browse to and tap your destination once. You should see a target reticle.
2. long-click the screen without dragging and select 'New Route to Selection'
3. Press 'g' to get back to your current location.
4. Repeat step 1 for your start location.
5. Long-tap and selectSet/Prepend Route Start.
6. Goto file->Fetch route from google
You should get a dialog asking you which route you want to view. (A roadmap trip can store more than one route...)
Unsaved route is the start/dest info you gave google.
Google Directions are well, directions from google maps.
Cheers and report back any bugs,
