To see the overall operation of the Land data tree, check the article Data Tree.

In this article, we will expand the information about interactions with tracks in the tree:

Activities and Routes

As we know, tracks can be divided according to their purpose into Activities (recordings of my live movements) or Routes (paths to follow for navigation), and in the data tree they are classified this way (see article Differences between Activities and Routes):

The tree also contains access to online Routes, which are explained in detail in the other article Online Routes in Land.

Keep in mind that you can show/hide the start points of your routes or activities by clicking the 'eye' icon:

Second Line Data

Tracks show key information below the name, on the second line. By default, color, distance, and ascent are displayed:


The data shown on the second line is configurable and can be edited according to needs. 

To edit them, right-click on a track and select the option 2nd line data:

A window appears where you can select the fields to display on the second line:

 

Expand Track Contents

Tracks can contain various elements that can be displayed by expanding their content:

• Start and End Points:
  
   
• Roadbook Points:
  
   
• Laps (see article Analyze your routes by laps):
  
   
• Deviations and Variants (see article Tracks with variants):
  
   

Interaction with Map, Graph, and Properties

Map

• By double-clicking on a track (or right-click 'Zoom to it'), the map window centers on it:
  
• By clicking on a track, segment, or roadbook point, it becomes selected and highlighted on the map:
  
  
• You can show/hide the start/end points (of your routes or activities) on the map by clicking the 'eye' icon:
  
  
  
  
• With the 'eye' icon, you can also show/hide a track that you have open. This will allow you to clarify the content of the map window to see the tracks you want and hide those you don't, and to see the map information that lies just beneath the tracks:
  

Graph

• Select a track from the data tree to highlight it in the graph:
  
  If the Graph window is not open, you can open it by right-clicking on the track and selecting the option Graphs Window, or by using the Show Graph function from the toolbar:
  
   
• When showing/hiding a track with the 'eye' from the tree, it will also be shown/hidden in the graph window, allowing you to adjust the content for better comparison. 
  For example, if we have tracks open with very different altitudes, it may result in a graph that is not very usable, but by hiding some of them, we can combine the track views to compare them:
  

Properties

If we have the properties window open (Right-click > Properties), it will show the properties of any selected element. This means we can successively select one track or another to quickly compare their detailed properties, or even select their segments or roadbook points:

If the Properties window is not open, you can also open it using the Properties function from the toolbar:

Multi-selection

  You can select several elements (tracks, waypoints, etc.) to apply simultaneous   actions (Save, close, delete...).

• First, you must click on the first element to select it.  
• Then hold down the Control/Command or Shift key and click as needed:         
  •  Shift: When selecting a second element, that element and all the intermediate ones between the first and the         last will be selected.     
  • Control(Windows)/Command(Mac): You can select different elements, even if they are not consecutive.    
• Right-clicking opens the contextual menu to perform an action on all selected elements:
        

Tip: This function is useful, for example, for changing the format   of multiple tracks at the same time. If you 'Save as' a multi-selection,   and choose a format (e.g., GPX, TRK...), new tracks will be created with the selected format,   maintaining the original name.

Multi-selection and Properties

  If we have multiple elements selected (e.g., waypoints or tracks), and we display   the Properties, changes made to properties will affect all   selected elements.

  That is, if we have 3 tracks selected, and we assign a color in properties,   all 3 tracks will change to have that color.
