draw GPX trace on top of Roads

2

when viewing GPX traces in potlatch2, they are drawn underneath the roads, which makes them hard to see or find. is there a way to draw them on top of the roads to see them better?

When editing with Potlatch2 you could try changing the map stylealt text to wireframe and/or setting the background to none that may help. But I don't know of any way to change the GPXes to the top layer.

I pretty much always use the wireframe style for checking when GPX traces aren't clear.

Press "D" to dim the map display. This will make the background layers (e.g. GPS) and imagery (e.g. Bing) show up more clearly. Press "D" again to get back to normal.
