Das Userinterface vom Edge Explore 2 ist immer noch genauso kryptisch wie vor 15 Jahren mit den Legend und Vista Navis. Nur mehr Klickibunti. Ich habs jetzt endlich gefunden. Es klappt.
Im Hauptmenü – Profil – Navigation – Karte – Darstellung – Kartendesign — Das alles hat mit dem “Einstellungsmenü” nichts zu tun. Da muss man erst mal drauf kommen.
Und ich dachte schon, BMW hätte ein beschissenes User Interface! Umgekehrte Polnische Notation, durch die Nase ins Ohr gezogen.
Danke jedenfalls

du hast den Punkt in der Anleitung übersehen – wo steht das du das klassische Layout einschalten musst, nicht hoher Kontrast.
2. im Karten Setup Menü lassen sich die Karten auswählen.

I decided to harmonise the patterns of tracktype / sac_scale and mtb_scale a bit differently. So far personally I was quite satisfied with it. The main problem is simply – brown, red and blue are the best colours for visibility, and green a bit worse. However using blue for mtb trails as I had done in the past was too confusing for many people concerning rivers. Using pink/violet is impossible as it is used for tracks/routes. Black is well visible but it’s not good to be used as too many other things like cliffs or paved roads best work with black. So that kinda leaves some kind of green (yellow is worse).
I attached an older wide legacy .typ file – note however you should copy in the full new points section of an up to date typfile – because I reworked a lot there.
It’s impossible to keep several versions because it means each time a lot of changes. I will soon still do some more work on the POI section – there are some things I still need to enhance concerning zoom levels – and there are 1-2 bugs right now that I noticed.

OK, I understand the reason to change the color. But why changing the patterns (that users got used to since many years)? Anyway, is it possible (for my, or other users personal use) to revert back to the previous patterns? Is it possible to edit the .TYP file? Or could you provide me the previous version of the .TYP file, so that I can replace it on my computer? Thank you.

PS. Please, don’t treat this as criticism, but rather as feedback. I appreciate your work very, very much, thanks for it!

Yes I changed it on purpose – after trying out the visibility back to back on many devices – while in Basecamp it’s a bit worse (but I got used to it) – on the GPS devices I find it now much clearer to differentiate. Especially if no sun is shining onto them. The problem is that the dark greenish is much harder to see on edge devices and their crappy contrast but very low power displays.

Die sind seit ein paar Wochen in den Karten vorhanden. Ich habe nur noch etwas Probleme das wegen der Suche bei den neuen Edge Geräten ich den Code für bike Shop nicht herausfinden kann – und daher in der Suche bike-charging für Bikeshop verwende – Bike Charging ist aber ebenso auf der Suchfunktion. Ich muss das vom Symbol her noch etwas verbessern – da ist grad der Wurm drinnen (alle Bikeshops haben ein Charging Symbol)
