-There are two types of track recording panel that can be selected in [[manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:settings|settings]]. **Sliding side panel** is set as default.
+Track recording in Locus Map can be controlled Locus screen panel and a widget.

+===== Panel =====
-<WRAP round info >
+It slides from the left side of the screen and can be slid back by a finger or by the "back" HW button. Its content is different in two phases of its use:
-It slides from the left side and can be slid back by a finger. In case track recording is launched from a dedicated button in the [[manual:user_guide:functions:panel|function panel]] it can be slid by the "back" HW button.
+==== Tracks recording start ====
+Here you can select your [[manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:profiles_settings|recording profile]], pre-set [[manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trainingmanager|training scheme]] or [[manual:user_guide:tools:bluetooth|external sensors]]. {{:manual:user_guide:ic_track_record_rec_alt.png?nolink&30|}} **starts track recording**.

+<WRAP tip center round>The track recording can be started with countdown that can be defined in track [[:manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:settings|recording settings]]</WRAP>
+Ongoing track recording is indicated by:
+  * a **blinking indicator** on the left edge of the screen
+  * the track recording button is **green**
+  * the cursor indicates the **direction** of the movement and draws a **line**:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan06.jpg?nolink |}}
+==== Track recording control&monitoring ====
+A major part of the panel is filled by the track parameters that are actively monitored and displayed during the recording.
+{{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan02.png?nolink |}}
+You can set which values you want to monitor:
+  * 1. go to //settings > track recording > number of track monitoring items//. The number of track monitoring items on the panel can be set from 4 to 16.
+  * 2. go back to the recording panel and long-tap the field you want to change
+  * 3. select from a vast range of available parameters\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan03.png?nolink |}}\\
+  * it is possible to define also two charts\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan04.png?nolink |}}
+<WRAP center round info>
+During the recording the elevation gain value can look confusing as it displays quite large numbers - however, the value is true and displays a total elevation gain measured by your device. As the GPS-measured altitude values are quite fuzzy, the result has to be optimized. The optimization is calculated later after saving the track so as not to waste your device's battery life.

+Controls of the track recording are under the monitoring items:
+{{:manual:user_guide:ic_track_record_stop_alt.png?nolink&30|}} **stops recording** and proceeds to saving the track
-{{:manual:user_guide:ic_tools_alt.png?nolink&30 |}}
+{{:manual:user_guide:ic_track_record_pause_normal_alt.png?nolink&30|}} **pauses recording**. Paused recording is  indicated by an orange indicator and the track recording button is also orange:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan11.jpg?nolink |}}\\ Repeated tapping unpauses the recording.
+{{:manual:user_guide:ic_track_record_add_wpt_alt.png?nolink&30|}} **adds a waypoint** to the track - you can select among a simple point, photo point, audio point, and video point.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:trackrecpan05.png?nolink |}}

-==== Track monitoring ====
-There are many track parameters that can be actively monitored and displayed during the recording:
+===== Track Recording Widget =====
-  * //chart// - elevation profile continuously rendered during recording
-  * //current speed//
-  * //max speed// - maximum travelled speed during the recording
-  * //distance// - travelled distance from the start
-  * //track time// - time of activity on track
-  * //elevation gain// - is monitored both uphill and downhill. <WRAP round info>
-During the recording the gain value can look confusing as it displays quite large numbers - however, the value is true and displays total of elevation gain measured by your device. As the GPS-measured altitude values are quite fuzzy, the result has to be optimized. The optimization is calculated later after saving the track so as not to waste battery life of your device.
-</WRAP>
-  * //distance downhill//
-  * //distance uphill//
-  * //pace// - activity time for a kilometer
-  * //trackpoint counter//
-  * //current time//
-  * //battery level//
-<WRAP round tip >Number of track monitoring items on the panel can be set from 4 to 12. Long-tap on any item opens menu of available features to be monitored.</WRAP>
+Track recording in Locus Map can be comfortably started from a widget. There are two sizes available:\\ {{  :manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:widget.png?nolink&  }}

-<wrap tip>The track recording can be started with countdown that can be defined in track [[manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:settings|recording settings]]</wrap>
-  * **Recording profiles** - selection of pre-defined track activities - walking, biking, etc. Profiles define frequency of trackpoint recording and required GPS accuracy for various types of activity. The pre-defined [[manual:user_guide:tracks:recording:profiles_settings|profiles can be edited]]. {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:trackrec4.png?nolink |}}
