Working on the latest Subsurface build on Windows I realize a strange behavior of the Globe.
When opening subsurface and the current dive was saved without a location on the globe, it shows the earth at the minimum zoom aka from the outer space :) When I select other dives from the divelist which have a valid location the globe move to the dive location rotating at the same zoom. From that point, when I change dive it has (just) like a trembling. It shows the current dive location but the zoom is so wide that I just get a trembling when it center on the dive location (my dive locations are all in the Mediterranean sea so viewing them from the space doesn't change too much). If I zoom on the globe then that zoom level is maintained trough the program session hence when I change location I see a nice and meaningful globe movement. Maybe you are thinking I'm crazy but before I realize this I always thought that the marble plugin had several bugs. I wasn't able to understand what's happening. Some friends of mine reported the same thing to me: sometimes the globe simply doesn't work. This likely happens specially when I'm importing new dives and I don't have set the proper dive location yet. A simple enhancement would be: having a default (medium) zoom when dive location is set and the user has not zoomed in/out on the globe yet. http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/ticket/779 -- Davide https://vimeo.com/bocio/videos _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
