Multitracking of "own" QVM position in QV

You have in [QVC] “to track” the possibility of your own position of the Windows Phone to the Multitracking in QV-PU. The conditions which must be met are: You must use SkyDrive. With SkyDrive Windows 7 should be your operating system, since the integration with Windows Explorer works.

Copy the path to your “SkyDrive QVM_Locations” folder in the QVM the file “my-Position_Location.gpx” stores. In our example: C:\User\User\CloudDrive\SkyDrive\QVM_Locations

Open [QVC] and contribute to multitracking properties of this file path. When you start SkyDrive now, the position is updated automatically at a set interval. In this example, every 10 seconds.

Multitracking of QVM-positions in QV

You can also follow the shared positions in the [QVC] PowerUser.
Therefore you need a separate tool, the QvCloudsDownloader, which ensures the synchronization of all shared positions with your local directory at your disk. For the QvCloudsDownloader you need .Net 4.5, which you can - if not available yet - download from the Microsoft website and install it.
Download: Microsoft .NET 4.5.

Start the QvCloudsDownloader and click the Sign In to log in.

Then activate the button “Get Locations” to start downloading the “*_location.gpx” in a regular interval from the cloud to your local directory at your disk.

Per Default the “Name_location.gpx” will be saved in the folder Shared documents\QVCloudsLocations - but always the newest position. You can also create a directory of your choice.

Now the QvCloudsDownloader can be mimimized and synchronizes the status of the positions automatically and independent from [QVC].

If all settings concerning the multitracking were correct, you will see the person, who is sharing his “Tracking” with you, in the map screen.

Notice:
You are able to create several entries with different names but maximum 5 positions can be tracked and saved parallel. If you prefer viewing more positions an additional license for [QVC] is available on request.
