Web Awesome 3, Video, Widgets, POIs, Journeys, and Refreshed Studio

User Interface and Theming

• Web Awesome 3 migration: The Studio interface has been migrated to the new Web Awesome 3 component stack.
• New visual theme: Application tokens, menus, drawers, panels, cards, toasts, dialogs, and button bars have been reworked for a more consistent Studio experience.
• On-map theme refresh: Floating map widgets and menus now use a darker on-map gradient, lower-intensity borders, clearer hover outlines, and more consistent selected states.
• On-map hover feedback: Hoverable on-map buttons, lists, menu items, and select options now use a subtle shared background for better readability.
• Context menus: On-map context menus now share consistent square icon buttons, hover outlines, spacing, and selected states across widget and crop-ratio actions.
• Single-action context menus: Context menus with one available action now keep balanced padding around that item.
• On-map toolbar polish: Rotation, panorama, video preset, and crop-ratio toolbars now use consistent padding, cleaner titles, and no visible drag handles.
• On-map widget icons: Reduced and locked widget indicators now use on-map branded colors instead of the global application brand color.
• Welcome experience: The welcome screen has been redesigned with new media assets and version-aware presentation.
• Changelog display: Changelog loading is paginated and cached, with stable release ordering so intermediate versions are no longer skipped.
• File loading: The journey file loader has been redesigned with a clearer file list and improved feedback.
• Shortcuts reference: A new shortcuts panel is available from the information drawer and lists app, map, widget, and platform-specific actions with clearer iconized key and gesture rendering.
• Shortcuts PDF export: The shortcuts panel can now export its full shortcut catalog as LGS1920-shortcuts.pdf, with grouped sections, keyboard key badges, and the same Studio report footer used by journey PDF exports.
• Journey groups shortcut: Alt+Shift+G now opens the Journey Groups drawer directly from the app.

New Flythrough Mode

• Two modes: Flythrough can now run as a standalone animation or stay linked to video recording.
• Sync with video: When linked, playback, crop handling, and end-of-recording cleanup stay aligned with the video flow.
• Tracking modes: The camera can now run in Passive, Navigation, or Dynamic tracking mode depending on how much it should follow and adapt to the path.
• Passive tracking: Keeps the camera stable and only applies the minimum motion needed to preserve the current view.
• Navigation tracking: Follows the route more actively, with smoother camera movement and direction changes while keeping the path readable.
• Dynamic tracking: Adapts the camera position more aggressively to the path and current context for a more reactive flythrough.
• Camera positioning: Camera placement is now driven by the flythrough state so the view stays centered and consistent during the animation.
• Playback smoothing: Direction changes are smoothed to reduce sudden camera jumps during turns.
• Duration control: The Flythrough timing can be tuned so the animation matches the intended recording length.

Video Recording, Snapshots, and Widgets

• Recording pipeline: Video creation has been refined with improved recording settings, toolbars, theming, download/share flow, and on-screen recording feedback.
• Video widget relaunch: Video widgets now rehydrate more reliably when re-entering the video setup, including persisted scene widget placement.

• Snapshot export: PNG snapshot generation now relies on snapdom for a more reliable export path.
• Journey reports: Journeys can now be exported as complete PDF reports or HTML ZIP reports from the export menu.
• Report content: Reports include journey details, description, statistics, dates, elevation profile, POI tables, coordinates, altitude data, 2D overview maps, 3D Cesium captures, provider credits, and LGS1920 Studio branding.
• Report map annotations: Report maps include start/end markers, numbered POI badges, north arrows, and walking direction markers colored from the track.
• Report generation feedback: Report export displays staged feedback during map snapshots and report writing, with improved snapshot stabilization.
• Scene widgets: Widget rendering, ordering, dragging, resizing, persistence, and stacking have been stabilized for video and scene overlays.
• Widget reduction and locking: Scene widgets can now be reduced with double click and locked with Ctrl-click when enabled, with persisted state, context menu actions, widget-specific icons, and branded lock feedback.
• Widget capabilities: Widget definitions can disable reduction or locking, allowing recorder and capture-specific controls to stay fully interactive.
• Visual widget handling: Visual widgets keep their editor double-click behavior while still supporting lock/unlock where enabled.
• Widget editor: Text, profile, statistics, credits, crop zone, compass, and journey widgets received editor improvements for rotation, colors, typography, borders, shadows, and layout.
• Keyboard widget control: Selected widgets can now be edited, removed, moved, resized, and layered with keyboard shortcuts.

Journey Statistics Widget

• Location and date display: Journey statistics can now display the journey location under the date, with matching sizing, color, and centering in the widget and editor.
• Date and time layout: Editor date displays now share the same responsive formatting, with same-day ranges rendered as one date plus a time range and a branded time icon.
• Metric visibility: Distance, elevation, and duration can each be toggled independently, allowing a widget to show only the relevant metrics.
• Text order: Date, location, distance, elevation, duration, altitude, speed, and pace can be reordered from the dedicated Text order tab.
• Summary layout control: Distance, elevation, and duration can be kept side by side or separated onto new lines directly from the Text order rows.
• Reactive preview: Data editor, preview, and the real scene widget now react consistently to text order and visibility changes.
• Divider styling: The Journey Stats separator now supports gutter-based horizontal spacing.
• Moveable frame: The widget selection frame has been adjusted to match the real rendered width and height.

Map, Camera, POIs, and Journey Tools

• 2D focus framing: POI, journey, and Journey profile focus now use a 45 degree fallback angle in 2D and frame full journeys inside the viewport.
• Camera distance: Camera range calculations for focus and journey framing have been corrected.
• Panorama widget: A panorama widget has been added, with rotation support shared by POIs and journeys.
• Rotation and panorama controls: Rotation and panorama widgets now use compact on-map Web Awesome sliders, icon-only controls, animated direction toggles, drag-safe slider interaction, and value labels tuned for the toolbar footprint.
• Camera movement widget: The temporary camera movement widget now supports lock-aware visibility and a compact unlock control without changing the widget footprint.
• Compass updates: A wind rose compass has been added and the compass selector has been reworked.
• POI interactions: Left click toggles POI billboard expansion, while right click and long tap open the POI context menu.
• POI context menu: POI context menus now use the POI coordinates instead of the underlying map click point.
• POI locations: POI billboards, expanded POIs, and POI editors now display the resolved location with overflow handling.
• Journey and track locations: Journey drawers and track editors now show resolved start/end locations.
• Journey tools: Journey panels, profile preview, statistics, track data display, duration display, focus actions, and in-editor camera workflows have been improved.
• Journey groups: Journeys can be organized from a dedicated Journey Groups drawer, with colored groups, drag-based ordering, editor chips, cleanup when journeys are removed, and direct access from the app shortcut catalog.
• Journey activities: Journeys now carry an activity type and reuse activity-specific statistics cleaning settings to keep pace, speed, elevation, and extrema coherent with the selected practice.
• Track style editor: Journey editing now includes presets, underlay control, dash and gap lengths, optional bicolor dashes, and smoother organization for track rendering settings.
• Distance-based track display: Tracks can switch between full style, far-distance fallback lines, and locator markers according to camera distance to remain legible at every zoom level.
• Geocoding: Geocoding has been transformed into a widget-based dialog and is used to resolve display locations from coordinates.
• Layers and terrains: Layer and terrain selection, filtering, color adjustment, and mobile layout behavior have been refined.

Location Metadata and Export

• Journey location metadata: Journeys now keep location, country, country code, countries, and country codes for later filtering and export use.
• POI location metadata: POIs now keep location, country, and country code; existing POIs are completed when the app loads if the data is missing.
• Start and end POIs: Journey start and end POIs reuse the journey endpoint locations.
• Starter POI: The default starter now includes a fixed location and country metadata based on its coordinates.
• Journey file export: Journeys can now be exported directly as GPX or GeoJSON with a format-aware dialog and filename handling.
• Associated POIs export: GPX and GeoJSON exports include associated POIs while excluding generated journey start/end system markers.
• Export persistence: Journey and POI location, country metadata, and LGS-specific properties are persisted through GPX and GeoJSON export/import.
• Multi-country support: Journeys crossing multiple countries preserve both display strings and structured country/country-code lists.

Fixes and Reliability

• POI and journey focus: Fixed focus issues affecting POIs, journeys, and profile preview.
• Changelog regression: Fixed the changelog regression where the second release entry disappeared from the displayed list.
• Description fields: Journey, track, and map element descriptions now decode HTML entities consistently in core data and editor forms.

• Journey statistics interactions: Clicking journey statistics extrema can now reveal temporary map markers without duplicating user POIs.
• Rendering stability: Fixed Cesium rendering and initialization issues, including terrain optimization and viewer startup reliability.
• Flythrough stability: Flythrough progress now resets cleanly at stop/end, avoids stale runtime samples, and throttles rendered path geometry updates for smoother playback.
• Cache management: Improved PWA cache handling and added a dedicated Cesium assets cache.
• Widget rotation: Fixed rotation synchronization for text widgets and journey statistics widgets.
• UI regressions: Fixed drawer footer, panel back button, card appearance, heights, button bars, loading icons, undefined colors, and mobile scrollbars.
