[closed] Change Colour of Tracks?

I have been using AlpineQuest for a couple of years now and have found it to be brilliant and just about the best App I have. I have just upgraded to the latest version and find the clarity and functions a great improvement. One thing that would help me is if I could change the colour of the tracks (or routes, or both). I tend to walk following a 'route' on my device (an Orange San Fransisco phone) and plot a 'track' at the same time. As they are both blue they can get a bit confused and the ability to change their colours would be helpfull. (I see from your screen shots that this might once have been possible). Again many thanks for a great funtional and well supported App. :D

Hi and thanks for your feedback.
Yes you can change the colour of GPX tracks and routes, but not the track currently being recorded.
To change the colour, long click on a route/track, select 'Edit', and click on the colour button.
Best regards.

Wow! :o that was quick reply - and Wow! :o that's just what I wanted. I had been using version 1.20 and didn't bother to upgrade because I was very happy with it. (except perhaps for the fixed track/route colours) I have just bought a tablet (Samsung Tab2 10.1) and thouht I would try AlpineQuest on it (although I don't think I will be carrying it around with me on walks). It works perfectly on that and registered simply with my registration Email address. That prompted me to upgrade my old version - and I am glad I did. I did look for the colour change facility - but couldn't find it - that will teach me to look harder next time. :oops: The ability to download maps and have them cached automatically is another very big plus for me - the previous way using Mobile Map Creator worked fine but was a bit tiresome (and needed the PC).
Best Regards
