Respect color for tracks when importing KML files

I'm trying to import a KML file with multiple routes. Each route is colour coded using the LineStyle KML tag. Unfortunately Gaia ignores this and assigns random colours to the routes.

It would be great if we could respect the colour information in KML / GPX files.

This is essential for some large KML files. For example I'm trying to import the routes for the Greater Patagonia Trail. The colour of the routes gives essential information (main route / optional routes etc.). 

(this applies to both Android and iOS)

  Yes! Please fix this or give it as an option, ie a checkbox to keep kml coloring/styles or let Gaia color/style the lines for you. Loss of information when importing (colors, styles, icons, etc) is my biggest issue with Gaia and the same for others that I have talked to.

  I agree. Came here looking for answers to this very thing. App should respect color already in the kml file.
