====== Overlay Manager ======

<WRAP info> With the Overlay Manager in the [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kurviger.app|Kurviger App]] and on [[https://kurviger.de/en/|Kurviger.de]] you can easily manage and work with overlays in Kurviger. The overlays remain on Kurviger, regardless of the route, they are synchronised with your Kurviger account so you can use them on different devices.

===== What can be displayed as an overlay? =====

Kurviger's **Overlay Manager** offers the option of displaying various content as overlays:

  * **Files** (e.g. gpx)
  * The **currently planned route**
  * **Cloud route**
  * A** Favourites folder**
  * A **route folder** (only for [[:web:kurviger_tourer| Kurviger Tourer and Tourer+]])

To add an overlay, proceed as follows:

  - Click on the ''Kurviger icon'' at the top left of the screen to open the Kurviger main menu.
  - Select the ''Import'' option.
  - Then click on ''Select file'' and add the desired file.

On [[https://kurviger.de/|Kurviger.de]] it is almost the same as in the app. Note, however, that you can access the import menu on the website directly via the navigation bar.

===== Advanced options =====

Once you have selected a file, you can activate the ''Advanced options''. To do this, click on the slider icon to the right of ''Advanced options''. The advanced options in the Overlay Manager offer various functions to further specify and personalise the display and management of overlays. 

Here are the available functions:

  * Expand route/overlay
  * Overlay types (automatic, track, route, waypoints)
  * Add imported route also as overlay
  * Limit the number of waypoints
