Import waypoints from KML: Icons-Support (and Sync with Google My Maps) Empty Import waypoints from KML: Icons-Support (and Sync with Google My Maps)

Hi José

Orux Maps already supports the import of waypoints through KML files. But Orux Maps ignores the icon style tag in the KML...
Code:
<Style id="style20">
    <IconStyle>
      <Icon>
        <href>http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/ms/micons/water.png</href>
      </Icon>
    </IconStyle>
  </Style>

...and the corresponding styleUrl-Tag in the Placemark-section...
Code:
<Placemark>
    <name>Brennerei Erismann</name>
    <description>Zahlreiche (prämierte) Brände, Liköre, "Swissky" und ein Absinth ("Zürcher Fee"). Auf Empfehlung des Buches 'Eine kulinarische Entdeckungsreise durch Zürich und Umgebung'. Auf Anfrage auch Führungen und Degustation.</description>
    <styleUrl>#style20</styleUrl>
    <Point>
      <coordinates>8.551435,47.504414,0.000000</coordinates>
    </Point>
  </Placemark>

It would be great, when Orux Maps could display the waypoints WITH icons, so it would look more or less like this map: http://maps.google.ch/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=203986804486403135195.00044dfa10c24b2317c4c&t=h&z=8. This feature would be a 10€-Donation worth.

A nice addition would be the synchronisation with Google My Maps or also only the possibility to load a Google My Map in orux maps. This extra-feature would be a 5€-Donation worth.

I wish you a very good 2011 and hope you'll continously develop on orux maps, which is one of my most regularly used apps on Android.

Hi, Björn

kml is a very complex format, with a lot of tags.

but I will work in the future with more tags (including styles).

Hi José

Yes, I very well understand you: KML is not that easy, even if it's well documented.

Greetings

Hi, Orux,

OruxMaps is a great software, not only on features, but it's incredible stable, too.

complementing what was requested on this topic, it would be great if OruxMaps could:
- read points icons and styles from .kml files;
- read trakcs properties, like color, width and opacity;
- be able to store those properties for further recovery and plot over raster maps using the properties;
- maybe some zoom limit for rendering points and tracks;

thank you very much for your work.

Xavier
