Zoom Buttons even if you are on auto zoom
Quote from Roadrocker on 18.10.2023, 11:45I would like to have the option to put zoom buttons on the screen to quickly zoom out in some cases and automatically remain to auto zoom after a few seconds. Just to get an overlook in some cases. This would make me really happy 😀

I'm working on a big update where the "overview" feature will be expanded so you can quickly zoom to (1) The entire route (2) the remainder of the route (3) around your current location.

A feature to set zoom buttons on the screen would be the easiest and best solution.

Quote from Guido on 18.10.2023, 16:23I understand what you mean, but there is a catch to this.
Actually, Scenic used to have the ability you want (to show zoom buttons even while on auto-zoom), and they worked exactly as you described (temporarily would zoom out for about 5 seconds or so). But then I got a lot of support questions "the zoom buttons don't work... the map zooms in again after a while". I know this could be explained by some text somewhere (and it did), but a surprising number of people don't read the text in alerts and footnotes.
Not trying to be stubborn... I see the added value of your suggestion, but know from experience the confusion this can also create, and I believe the "zoom around current location" button in the big update could also address your request. I suggest you give that a try once the new version is out (November). And if it doesn't work, we can think about another solution.
If you want I can give you access to the beta version so you can already give it a try. If you'd like that, please send me a direct email through the "email me" button at the bottom of the help page.
