There is a third thing I forgot to mention, which is Viking doesn't tell you how long the track you're creating is [having to go off to the track properties each time is not very useful]. Until now! About a month ago I hacked up a thing to display the total distance of track (via a tooltip like text) on the main display. This is heavily based on the draw_ruler / ruler_move code in vikwindow.c Perhaps not the easiest to understand code, but it seems to do something useful. (including when one deletes points) Whether it's good enough for inclusion in the main code base is up to the opinions of a few people. It's not as 'slick/polished' as I would ideally want, but in light of nothing else it's more than adequate (for me at least). http://github.com/rnorris/viking/tree/TrackCreationDistance HTH anyone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Viking-devel mailing list Viking-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/viking-devel Viking home page: http://viking.sf.net/
