I just pushed version 0.14-3, which has automatic landscape/portrait GUI rotation support.

It can be configured in options -> view:
  • automatic - set the rotation according to the accelerometer
  • landscape - landscape only
  • portrait - portrait only
The settings are remembered and used on next start. By default, it is set to "auto".

yes, I've checked a few times since martinK's post & I don't see it from App Mgr either (have updated several times).

EDIT - OK, got it via app mgr this evening, loving the portrait mode, it switches quite quickly in auto mode!

A list of map sources is listed in the FIRST post.

Depends on map source and your usage location - try it and see.

Well, modRana is currently not aware of its own version
But good point, this should really be added.

In the meantime, you can use this workaround:
  • go to the "remove package" section in the package manager or Fapman
  • search for "modrana"
Just don't uninstall modRana by accident

hi, a (low priority) feature request: any chance you could look at the espeak spoken directions & try to have them coexist with media player? at present, I don't get the TTS audio at all if I'm also listening to music - I just get my music increased in volume whilst espeak is trying to talk.

either pause/restart media player (preferred) or "overlay" espeak on top of music would be nice addittions to modrana :-)

I noticed this too. I'll see what can be done.

BTW, I am currently working on automatic map rotation + tile doubling/quadrupling. It is already working, it just needs to be cleaned to a releasable state.

great news! one other thing - the "centre map" setting in options/view seems to get reset to OFF very often after it's been turned ON. as long as you don't touch anything after turning ON. the centring works great, but if you reroute, zoom in/out etc. it seems to revert to OFF.

I'd suggest the setting should be preserved in whatever state it's been set to - ideally across multiple program runs, reboots etc.?

Looking forwrd to next release ...
