Show Upcoming Elevation Graph from GPX

[Giordano]

I use OsmAnd for cycling and I love it.

I usually load on my Android phone a computer-made GPX track, display it in cycling mode, and just manually follow the route (with navigation DISABLED).

It would be very helpful for me to be able to see the elevation graph from the GPX track.

The ideal thing would be to have a graph (possibly overlayed at the bottom of the map) showing the elevation of the last 3km and the upcoming 3km, with the current position at the centre, based on the GPX track.

Is there a way to implement such a feature? Could it be made through a widget?

I am aware of the existing function under MyPlaces/Tracks/GPX file/"Analyse on Map", but I find this function cumbersome to use while riding for the following reasons:

1. The current position on the gpx file has to be manually selected by sliding the finger left/right on the bottom graph. It is very complicated/dangerous to do this while cycling and it is impossible to get the needed precision
2. The elevation graph shows the plot of the whole GPX file, without any option to zoom in. This is inconvenient for long rides (i.e., >100km), making it very difficult to find crucial information like "where is the peak" and "how much more uphill do I have to ride".
3. While entering the "Analyse Map" mode, all the widgets (speed, current elevation, battery percentage, etc.) disappear because this function is not meant to be used while moving.

Any help/suggestion would be gladly appreciated!

Thank you very much for your help in improving this amazing app.

Thanks for your suggestion Bart!

I just posted the issue as a "feature request".

You can probably "like it" if you find it could be useful for you as well.
