Sorry, but I leave calculation of the fix up to the GPS receiver. I don't want to start tweaking the data in certain ways - Maemo Mapper is not a GPS data manipulator or statistical analysis tool. If you want to get an average, you should collect the GPS data separately (or save Maemo Mapper's track to a file) and do the average manually.

Not at the moment.

Actually, v1.4.x used the same behavior as v2.x's default, "When Moving (Fullscreen Only)". Are you saying there should be another option, "When Receiving Any GPS Data (Fullscreen Only)"?

Not sure if you are aware of this, but Maemo Mapper will plot new routes if you enable "Auto-Update" in the "Download Route" dialog, and if you have an internet connection during your trip.

Thanks, as usual many of the features we ask for are already there! I promise to check the menues a bit better.

No, I'd like a setting so that if it's full screen it doesn't dim the screen at all. If there's a gps signal or not.

Otherwise, it's a bug. I'll check it out.
Nope I was on V 2.0.3 which I had Friday and checked the track Yesterday. No additional data.

Thanks. Great product.

Ah yes, that's where it is alright. I was just overlooking it .

Thanks! Helpful as always.

BTW, everything looks great in the new version!!

I couldn't find any word/post when MM 2.0 OS2008 version will be out? Gnuite, please?

This is the only application left that is holding me on completely moving into OS2008...
