I think I have found the reason, why it was so slow.
In my map folder, I had the mapsforge maps from Freizeitkarte and from OpenAndroMaps. Both in same folder I now tried it only with the mapfiles from freizeitkarte. And now it seems to be faster.
Only with active elevate 4 theme the map and options starts really faster und smoother.
But the theme is not shown at all even it is active. I only see the blanc map without themeing. Background is white and no wood, green, water or park is seen in color or so.
Sorry I dont know who to make a video of that. Is there an app, that can do that on my smartphone? But I wrote what happend down here. New is, the freezing. Time is the same like before.
Was just able to do a quick test of the new version.
When the map was started for the first time, all possible map elements were still displayed. Only after the 3rd start of the map did they disappear all at once and the map was displayed as it was set by me. That was already good.
The selection in the themes such as city, outdoor and so now seems to work without any problems. Is displayed correctly immediately after selection.
Only every time I want to switch to the options, the app freezes and I have to wait about 20 seconds or more until my smartphone reacts again. Usually there is also an error message.
I am then also asked whether I want to quit the app or wait.
Calling up the offline map also takes a relatively long time.
Furthermore, the app now seems to cause more problems and to use a lot more energy than normal. In any case, this comes as an error message from the smartphone.
The OpenAndroMap themes still don't seem to work.
As I said, it was just a short test. But I think it will be similar if I test more intensely.
I took time for indoor tests this morning because we still have curfews due to Corona.
I also made a few screenshots that I simply attach after the text. I think you'll see what I mean there.
In the previous version everything seemed to be displayed as I had selected in the Map Theme Settings. I was able to deselect the highlighting of the footpaths and bike paths, because they mostly bothered me because they were drawn in different colors.
After the update, when I went to the other map directory, where the themes are now in their own folder, a problem appears.
I was able to switch between the themes without any problems. But in the themes there is a further selection of e.g. outdoor, bike or city. At first I couldn't seem to change the setting. The first shot always remained. But I found out later that this changed when I went out and went back into this setting. Only then do you see that it has changed. Is a visual problem during adjustment, but can be confusing.
Furthermore, it now seems to be ignored where the hooks are. Everything is simply displayed now. In other words, even if I remove hooks such as cycle paths or footpaths, they are still displayed.
That was not the case with the previous version, where there was no multiple topic selection. The selection seemed to work.
Everything is currently displayed that the theme can display, regardless of whether it is selected or not.
After starting the app, when I go to the live map, it takes about 20 to 30 seconds before it appears. Also, when you start it for the first time, only the map without theme appears for a long time. Sometimes this does not appear at all, sometimes only when I switch back to the main menu and back to livemap.
But then, as mentioned, it shows everything at the same time what is possible with the theme, no matter what the hooks are.
I reinstalled the app as a test and deleted the cache of the themes. But it didn't help.
I have installed the 3 themes of the Freizeitkarte Map (freizeitkarte-v5, fzk-outdoor-contrast-v5, fzk-outdoor-soft-v5) and OpenAndroMaps (Elements, Elevate). It seems to me that only the Freizeitkarte themes works in map view. OpenAndroMaps doesn't seem to work. The empty map remains without a theme.
Have tried this in all possible configurations. Always the same result. Freizeitkarte Themes work, OpenAndroMaps won't work for me with GeoohGo. But it works on most other Geocaching Apps I have installed.
What is also missing here would be a selection option for offline maps. Because I need a different basic map material for the leisure map than for the OpenAndroMaps. In other words, I have the Mapsforge Maps of the leisure map in the map directory and then the Mapsforge Maps of the OpenAndroMaps. However, there is currently no selection option for the map.
My suggestion would be that you can somehow select the card type when selecting the card in the map view. That there is no other there, but the names of the individual offline maps. I don't know if that would be possible somehow.
I'll attach a few screenshots then. I hope you can handle it. At the end there is also a view of the map, as it is displayed in various other geocaching apps and in Geooh Go with identical settings of the theme. You will see the difference I think.
Extra Info: The map files with the theme files are in a folder on my SD Card and will be used for simmilar other apps there. Smartphone is Samsung Galaxy S9 with Android 10.
On first start of the map it takes a little time till the theme is there, but then it works.
If this multiple theme would work I can use my other directory that I use vor my other apps. There are all maps and themes and on a map update I have only to update one directory. Right now I have an extra directory with map data specially for geoohgo. Than I only need one for all.
