Edit: ~~the problem is gone, i assume it was a buggy track.~~ The problem exists with the versio 4.7.10, from 24.04.24, which is the version that is recommended by fdroid. It is gone in the latest one from 14.05.24

I updated osmand to 4.7.10 yesterday and now it seems like the little info widget on the bottom screen shows elevation (i assume), relative to the whole track, not the 10km that are currently shown in the widget. Cannot find anything in the settings. In the what's new it said they did some changes to the graphs but i could not make sense of it.

Does anybody know how i can set it back to the way it used to be, as in relative to current section of the track?

If I use my two fingers on the elevation widget, I can "zoom in and out" and it will show me the corresponding section of the track in the map.

For me, that is the same behavior as with previous versions.

Yeah that didn't work with the elevation profile, it stayed more or less like in the screenshot. But the problem seems to have disappeared now, thank you.

Commenting to bump up the activity stat for you. The OSM forums may be a good place to ask as well.

Actually it didn't fix itself, it may have looked like it because the altitude span i still had to ride was so little. This morning i had the same problem because my route goes into the mountains again from sea level.

The problem exists with the version 4.7.10 from 24.04.24, which is the version that is currently recommended by fdroid. It is gone in the latest one from 14.05.24, which i have now installed.

~~Thank you. Somehow the problem solved itself, i reckon there was something weird with the track, it had a lot of little tunnels, you can see that the grades are also all over the place in the screenshot. Maybe it dipped the altitude to sea level or something, but i felt like it had been like this all day. Thanks again.~~

~~*edit: it is also no longer saying -65m as the lowest altitude but -9m even though i've been riding downhill since the screenshot and it actually goes down to sea level now inside the widget section.~~
