I have a side project, a travel planner. I just added gpx export so I can use Organic Maps offline while traveling. Is there any way for me to include a color within the gpx file that organic maps will understand?

Thanks

    Just did some messing around in OM and it doesn’t look like it is supported (at the moment).

    GPX waypoints have an atrribute called “symbol”, which can name a symbol or icon to display. It looks like this attribute can also, in theory, contain a color.

    But it doesn’t get recognized on import into OM.

    When setting the color of a waypoint in OM and exporting as GPX, the color info is stripped from the resulting file.
