KML Export results in wrong elevation display / Start-End flipped in Google Earth #1407

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I am not sure if this is a problem with MyTracks or Google Earth. I looked but 
could not find a report from anybody else on either side. Recorded data seems 
fine when shown in charts inside MyTracks. However, if I export it...

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. record GPS location + speed + elevation + heart rate 
2. export as KML
3. import into Google Earth

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The output should produce an elevation chart from the start to the end point. 
Instead the elevation shown goes from the end straight to the start, ignoring 
my track. In the attached image you see the output including the elevation 
graph from KML file (top) and the same data exported as GPX (bottom). In the 
GPX version the elevation is correct. No heart rate data though. Google Maps 
shows an empty elevation chart (when clicking on end marker). 

What version of MyTracks are you using? On what version of Android? On what 
phone?

- MyTracks 2.0.5
- Zephyr HxM heart rate sensor
- Samsung Galaxy Nexus running Paranoid Android (based on 4.2.2)

Please provide any additional information here:
I will attach the KML file in question, too.

In Google Earth, under "Places", under "Temporary Places", select "Jogging in 
the Rain" track (below the green start marker and above the red end marker), 
and click "Show elevation profile", you should be able to see the right data.

You clicked on the container and clicked "Show elevation profile", which shows 
a profile between the items it contains. (Not what you want).
