Starting from v3.1.4, The main activity of GPS Logger can be driven by hotkeys.
The user can send hotkeys to the app using an external keyboard (for example a Bluetooth external physical keyboard), but also using a task automation app.
An app of this type, for example, when detects a connection with your car, can start GPS Logger and begin the recording of a new track; when the connection with the car is lost, it can automatically stop and finalize the track.
Here below the complete list of hotkeys:
R
= Start recordingP
= Pause recordingT
= Toggle recording ON/OFFA
= Request an annotation (with input dialog)Q
= Request a quick annotation (without input dialog)S
= Stop recording (with finalizing dialog)X
= Stop recording and finalize the track (without dialog)E
= Open the Settings page1
= Show the GPS FIX Tab2
= Show the TRACK Tab3
= Show the TRACKLIST Tab
We are open to implementation of additional hotkeys, anyone can propose the implementation of a new one by opening an issue on GitHub.
