v4.40 Broke Useful Zoom Levels on Custom Maps

Hello Guido,

One of the main features of Scenic I have found to be incredibly useful is the ability to make custom maps and why I'm a passionate promoter of this app anytime I can.

It really sets this app apart from the rest.

I spent a lot of time curating a couple of custom maps that perfectly suits my needs for off tarmac and small road exploring, both in SE Asia and in North America. My main focus is navigating what are considered in the Scenic road description as tracks (forest roads, outdoor recreation), Lv 6 and Lv 7 roads.

Up until v4.40 the visible zoom level for these roads was 9, now it is 13.  The update notes states it "fixed" zoom levels for these roads but now the thing I found the most useful for planning and wandering off the beaten path is gone. I have to be zoomed way in and scroll scroll scroll to see if a road or trail goes through, like any other map app.  I would say a more accurate description would be broke zoom levels, not fixed.

 

Please, bring back the road zoom levels for customs maps and let us decide what we want to see.

 

This shows the new maps levels, even though my map still shows level 9, it is forced to be 13.

 

 

Now with 4.40

 

 

Before 4.40, luckily I had some old screen shots posted on ADVrider showing how awesome the customs map options were for exploring and planning on back roads.

I had to “fix” this because of this issue: https://scenic.app/forum/topic/map-style-issue/#postid-16027

However, if they were showing before then maybe something else is wrong, or the map provider decided to change in what map tiles these roads are included.

I’ll investigate further.

If you're enjoying Scenic and are happy with the support, please leave a nice rating in the App Store. It would mean a lot to me ❤️
