What's new in v1.3.0
Polarsteps Integration
Import your Polarsteps trip steps directly into a GetTracks project. Steps appear as amber camera pins on the map alongside your Strava/GPX tracks.
- Settings → Polarsteps Connection… — enter your username and
remember_tokencookie to authenticate - Add track → From Polarsteps… — browse and import trips; only steps with a description or photos are imported (skips empty location-only steps)
- Support for buddy trips — enter a trip URL or ID directly when you are not the trip owner
- Imported steps are persisted in the
.gettracksproject file and survive app restarts
Waypoint Panel
Clicking a waypoint pin or list row now opens a dedicated detail panel (replacing the elevation chart area) showing:
- Step name, trip name, and date
- Full narrative description (scrollable)
- Clickable photo thumbnails — opens a full-screen photo viewer with ← / → / Esc navigation
Map Hover Tooltips
Hovering over a waypoint pin on the map shows a floating tooltip with the step name, a preview of the description, and up to 5 photo thumbnails.
Waypoints Section
A collapsible Waypoints section below the project list shows all imported steps. Supports:
- Multi-select with Shift+click, Ctrl+click, and Ctrl+A
- Right-click → Remove, or press Del / Backspace to delete selected waypoints
Appearance Dialog
Settings → Appearance… consolidates all map visual settings in one place:
- Tile provider dropdown (OpenStreetMap, CartoDB Positron, CartoDB Dark)
- Size sliders and colour pickers for Transportation icons, Start & End Point circles, and Waypoint pins
- Changes preview live on the map; Cancel reverts; Apply persists to
~/.config/GetTracks/settings.json
Bug fixes
- Photo viewer: try large thumbnail → small thumbnail → full-resolution CDN in fallback order; show the actual error if all fail
- Photo viewer: added SSL context to avoid certificate errors on some Windows setups
- Waypoint multi-select: Shift+click no longer collapsed the selection back to one item
- Elevation chart always visible and correctly refreshed after import
