[done] How to calculate path distance between 2 points in an active track?
Posted: Sat Apr 13, 2019 9:29 pm
While recording a track, I would like to know what distance I am (along the path of the track) from an earlier point on the track. It seems that in "statistics", you can get the current total track distance, but cannot get distance for any of the individual track points.
After you stop recording, you can touch a track point, go to Details, memorize the "distance" given; do the same for a second point, and then subtract. But that is both awkward, and less useful, since usually I am on a hike when I want to know "how far have we gone since this intersection?".
This seems like a very basic feature requirement for an app like this, so probably I am just missing something. Otherwise it's an outstanding app and I value it greatly! However, it should be easier to find this information.
