+{{ :en:help:v2:landmarks:local-tracks-dynamic-color-1.jpg?nolink }}
+\\
+  * Select the property of the track to use to compute the color, for example ''"**Elevation**"'' {{:icon_04.png?nolink}} to vary the color based on the elevation;
+  * Optionally, tap of the color palette button {{:icon_05.png?nolink}} to choose a different color palette {{:icon_06.png?nolink}} (available choices depend on the selected property);
