Hybrid distance units and more

Bless me father it's been a long time since my last request :lol: , but I'm continually pleased to see loads of new features and enhancements have been added.

I would like to see a Hybrid (m, mi, metric elevations) distance unit option. I tend to switch between Metric and Imperial with metric elevations and would love to not have to do that.

Also I miss the feature in MMtracker that produced a semi unique auto suggested name for saving a track. Some combination of date and coordinates if I remember right.

When creating a route in Placemark creator it would be super handy to see the live distance between the previous fixed waypoint and the cursor position in a similar manor to between the GPS location and cursor position.

Keep up the good work.

Hi Ukopta and sorry for the delay.
Distance units are quite complexe and tricky to add and test (it's not only distances, but I also need to adapt speeds - horizontal and vertical, elevation, area, pace, ...) so unless it's widely used I won't be able to add it.
Then, a better default name for tracks is planned, should be done far.
Finally, about the live distance in the route creator, I've added this in the latest version just released (2.2.5).
Regards
