The tools drawer¶

The Tools (right) drawer is opened from the button on the top right of the main view. It groups map/feature tools together with a few extra actions.

Project Info¶

Shows the path to the current project database and lets you share the file with other apps.

Opens a page with statistics about the current project’s content (logs, notes, forms).

Go to: uses the device’s geocoding service to look up an address and move the map to the result.
Go to coordinate: move the map directly to a longitude/latitude pair typed in as lon,lat.
Share position: shares the current GPS position (latitude, longitude, altitude, accuracy, timestamp, plus an OpenStreetMap link) through the device’s usual sharing options.

Available icons: opens the icons view, from which you can select icons to be used as default markers in the notes properties view.
Offline maps: SMASH has a built-in downloader for Mapsforge map files (see Supported map types) covering most of the world; tapping a region starts the download, which can take a while for large countries.

Warning

The first time a downloaded Mapsforge map is displayed at a low zoom level, SMASH generates the low-zoom tiles once on the main thread, which can briefly freeze the interface. Letting that one-time generation finish results in smooth navigation afterwards.
Andromaps link: opens the OpenAndroMaps download page in the browser, for additional Mapsforge-compatible maps that also support isolines.
Form builder: opens the form builder interface, allowing you to create and edit forms for data collection within the project.
Toggle editing: shows or hides the pencil button that reveals the editing/query tools in the bottom toolbar - see Editing tools. Off by default.
Toggle log info panel: shows or hides the live elevation/distance panel displayed while a GPS log is being recorded - see GPS Logging. Off by default.

In this view you can pick, from the full set, which ones should be offered as markers in the notes properties view.
