April 24, 2013 GPS Track Editor v.1.07 beta (build 102)

1. Feature Now you can export tracks in CSV (comma-separated values) format. Choose File | Export and select .csv file type. 2. Feature Now you can shift all the timestamps in the track by a specific value. Choose Track | Time | Shift. New time is set for the first point. Other timestamps are shifted correspondingly to keep the speed and other parameters unchanged. 3. Feature Now you can regenerate all timestamps of a track. Choose Track | Time | Reset. After that the speed along the track will be roughly the same. This can be useful if you want to protect your privacy. 4. Feature Now you can add more columns in the Points list: From start, Elapsed time, GPS Speed, GPS Heading, HDOP, VDOP, and PDOP. 5. Improvement You can use Ctrl + B to break a segment and Ctrl + J to join two adjacent segments (that is to remove break in the current point). 6. Improvement The speed and course tags that were present in GPX schema version 1.0 are processed even in GPX v. 1.1 files. 7. Improvement There are several small improvements in displaying values in the Points list. 8. Fixed After showing an empty track the Map view zoom became invalid. 9. Fixed Crash when opening a track for which the first point has a wrong time. 10. Fixed Large DOP values were not correctly displayed.

March 27, 2013 GPS Track Editor v.1.06 beta (build 100)

1. Feature If some or all track points do not have timestamps, the application can generate them. If there is not enough information to do this, the user is asked to set a preferable value for the average speed and the exact date and time of the first track point. 2. Feature Added new color modes for speed representation. In new schemes the red color corresponds to slow motion. The green one denotes high speed. 3. Change Updated non-standard attribute names when saving to GPX file. This helps to avoid conflicts when opening files, for instance, in Garmin Basecamp. 4. Change The Quick Launch is closed immediately after a link to the recent file is clicked. 5. Change The Points list does not display date and time if their values are not set in a GPX file. In the previous version year 1899 was displayed. 6. Improvement The track point status is more versatile now. Some bugs concerning the statuses were fixed. 7. Fixed The OpenStreetMap copyright was not rendered on the map. 8. Fixed Fixed incorrect point filtering when the timestamp order was wrong. 9. Fixed In some cases application updates did not work on Windows 8. 10. Fixed Inscriptions were corrupted in the Map view on Windows 7/8.

February 08, 2013 GPS Track Editor v.1.05 beta (build 97)

1. Feature OpenStreetMap can be used as a background. To toggle the map press Ctrl + M, or choose View | Map menu item, or click the corresponding button on the toolbar. 2. Change The Track Properties pane displays total values for all selected tracks (total distance, number of points and so on). 3. Improvement If a map tile is not available, a less detailed tile is displayed instead. 4. Improvement The markers of the current and selected track points were updated to be visible on the map. 5. Improvement When zooming the map using the mouse wheel the point under the cursor keeps its position on the screen. In the previous version the stable point was in the center of the map window and the cursor position was ignored. 6. Improvement Now the mouse wheel scrolls the list under the cursor. In the previous version it affected the focused window. 7. Improvement The map projection was improved (especially on world or country zoom levels). 8. Improvement The Quick Launch dialog design and behavior were improved. Added Getting Started section. 9. Improvement You can disable Quick Launch window on start-up. To display it again choose View | Quick Launch menu item. 10. Fixed The application hung if a warning message appeared while the application window was minimized. 11. Fixed A track structure was not correctly saved in GPX file. 12. Fixed The map dragging worked wrong on small scales. 13. Fixed Fixed typos. Updated track colors.

November 28, 2012 GPS Track Editor v.1.04 beta (build 93)

1. Feature The track appearance was completely redesigned. New colors are well-chosen to make track segments clearly distinguishable on different backgrounds. 2. Feature Now you can save a track or its part as a NMEA log. Select a track and choose File | Export Track. You can specify a combination of NMEA messages to use: GPRMC, GPGGA, GPGLL, GPGSA, or GPZDA. 3. Feature You can try a completely new feature of GTE. Press Ctrl + M to switch on/off the OpenStreetMap as a background. Map tiles are downloaded from Internet (you need a stable connection). This feature is in development now and it is not quite stable. 4. Improvement When several tracks or their parts are merged, the algorithm tries to comply with their structures. 5. Change The available zoom levels are limited to the range between 0.02 and 24 000 mpp (they were 0.001 and 200 000 respectively). 6. Change Updated file type filters in the Open dialog. 7. Change Updated the About dialog. 8. Change The speed and course (azimuth) are saved in the MGTE section of GPX file (if present in the source data). 9. Improvement Small UI improvements. 10. Fixed Fixed minor problems with the track inspection.

September 10, 2012 GPS Track Editor v.1.03 beta (build 88)

1. Feature Now it is possible to inspect and select track segments directly from the map. Hold the cursor over an inactive track. The names of the corresponding track segment, folder, and file appear; the segment is highlighted. Then you can left-click to select the segment in the Tracks list. 2. Improvement The track name inline-editing was improved to avoid an unintended action. 3. Fixed Sometimes new segment was not selected and visible after track segments from different folders were joined. 4. Fixed The cursor became wrong if the map was scrolled or zoomed using the keyboard.

August 24, 2012 GPS Track Editor v.1.02 beta (build 86)

1. Feature Now track segments can be split. Right-click on a track point (either in the Points list or on the map) and choose Restructuring | Add break. The break will be inserted between this point and the next one. 2. Feature Now you can remove a break between two sequential segments. Right-click on one of the break ends and choose Restructuring | Remove break. 3. Feature You can also combine several sequential track segments into one in the Track list.

Left-click on the name of the selected track to activate inline editing. You can also right-click and choose Rename from the context menu. Note that segment names are saved as a nonstandard GPX extension and they will be not used in other applications. 5. Feature Added new columns to the Tracks list. Now you can see time of start and finish, duration, distance and number of points of a track. Note that some columns are hidden by default. Right-click on the list header to activate or customize them. 6. Feature New Legend pane displays correspondence between track colors and selected track parameters (speed or elevation). 7. Improvement Improved design of some controls depending on Windows theme. 8. Improvement The track distance and total number of track points are displayed in the Track Properties. 9. Improvement The Track Properties window is now resizable. Position mouse on its top side and drag the border up or down. 10.

Change When the first track is opened, the map (Track View) is positioned to display it entirely. 4. Fixed The speed was not calculated for the last point in a segment. 5. Fixed Sometimes Local Inconsistencies Filter missed some wrong points with improbable speed or acceleration. The filter was also tuned to keep more details. 6. Fixed Fixed small UI inconsistencies.
