This can be done more quickly:
- Tap on the route icon (third from top, on the left)
- download route to
And I really didn't realize what that button did since I have finnish translation and that button says "load" instead of "download" so I though it was ment to load some previous route etc.

Maybe. It could be that if the starting point of the route is set to the GPS position, then the "follow mode" is activated.
And could it be possible to make map NON-rotating when not driving. That spinning causes headache when stopped to traffic lights

Hi Mardy, I got one feature request:
- possibility to select whether onscreen buttons are shows all time on the screen or automatically hidden after some time.
I didn't find this option at all and I would prefer to have those buttons visible all the time without first tapping on the screen to get them visible.
Thanks for updating this great application!

"streetname housenumber town"
Ofcourse without " -marks and the house number should be written in numbers.

Mardy,
I've got a bit of a feature request but I'm not sure if it's a bit excessive. I plan to use Mapper for hiking, i.e. download the maps and routes before I go and follow the route over a few days. (Haven't figured out about the battery life issue but that's another matter...)
Anyway, would it be possible to come up with a screen that can be toggled on and off to replace the map view that would show journey information? i.e. a 'Stats' icon that would bring up a screen showing the following kinds of information:
* Distance travelled (total and/or since last waypoint)
* Distance remaining (to next waypoint and/or end of route)
* Time elapsed
* Average speed
* Estimated time remaining (based on average speed)
* Estimated finish time
etc etc
Perhaps the info could be displayed on 4 or 6 panels and configured with whatever the user requires through Options.
Not sure how possible any of this would be but it would be great if it was something you could look into.
Cheers,
JS.

Hi!
First i like to thank mardy for developing this great app!
Second i have been searching maps folder from my n900, but havent still found it. Im preloading maps for certain areas and i like to know how much space they take.
I dont yet own mmc but it in my future plans, so i would also like to know how to change default map folder to the mmc.
Thanks!

The tiles are shared with Maep and eCoach, and it seems that the size of each tile is about 8-16kb.

JS.
I have been doing some testing, but at this stage I could not give you an estimated time.
Any reason for removing it from the menu?
Also have you used the tracking function much?
Running Mapper with tracking seems to put a very high load on the cpu making the N900 prone to crashing or at least getting really bound up where you cannot close any apps. It doesn't always happen, but it has several times now.
