Stefan added new suggestions about this. you can try the latest changes in master and discuss/ACK/NAK what he says. ------------------------ @neolit123 Took me some time until I was able to test the improvements. Great work! But... <g> I immediately have more suggestions: What is a great "side effect" of the new strategy is the following: After creating a new dive site for a new dive if the user "accidentally" already moves the map to the right location before pressing the "edit dive site" button this work is not lost when pressing the dive site button because the marker is created at the current map center. Thats great. But currently there is the strong need to once grab the marker then to have the gps coordinates copied to the edit field and to have it saved. Why not immediately copy the initial coordinates once. Maybe the marker is already at the 100% exact position and the user just wants to press "apply". If you now enter coordinates directly by keyboard this is reflected immediately in the marker position. BUT the map is not following the marker. So very often the marker will be out of sight and you have to find it by zooming out. The map should follow the marker in this case while keeping the current zoom level. ------------------------ lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
