map styles saving never ends
Quote from Middelfrangge on 02.05.2025, 08:55Hi Guido,
thanks for the new version with the map styles! Sorry, but I have one issue with it on my Iphone15 - whenever I finish the style and press save, it does not finish saving. I always close the app in that case and fortunately all my changes are saved, but closing the app is the only way to get out of the saving loop.
BTW, great work with the map styles setting options!
Regards
Thomas

What happens is that Scenic is trying to create a map thumbnail.
To do this, it moves and zooms the map to a certain position in California (so that all map thumbnails display the same area).
If you've never visited that area of the map before, the map tiles need to be downloaded for it, which can take a while.
This is only required the first time. After that, the map tiles should be cached locally and next tries will go faster.The user with the other report had some kind of weird thing going on with his Wifi. When he tried with cellular data, it worked immediately. I'm not sure why this is happening. Perhaps the map tile server (from the map provider) has some kind of protection for certain IP address ranges. That's just a guess though.
In any case, in the next version, I will add a time-out to this spinner so that at least you don't have to kill the app.
