<pre wrap="" class="">I've been saying this for a while now. But I'd like to actually try and
make this happen sooner rather than later...
So here's what I can remember of the top of my head...
Location management
===================
The location management work turned into an utter disaster of many
attempts that no one liked but I think we are getting closer there. What's
missing before this is ready for actual users?
Davide, are you back? Henrik, any chance you can help provide a todo list
of what's needed before we can use this in a release? What I'm looking for
is a TODO list...</pre>

TODO:<br class="">
<br class="">
I currently manage my dive sites by hand-editing the XML. At
present, if I enter Times Square as a dive site and tell Subsurface
to create a new site, it happily does so without also creating the
coordinates. So, two things:<br class="">
1) Allow coordinate selection from marble, as previously.<br class="">
2) Allow text entry of coordinates as previously.<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div>Both works when you go to View->Dive site edit (that's still capitalized wrong)<br class=""><div><br class=""></div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" class="">
Currently, when I enter Times Square, it says "create a dive site"
with a + to the right. If the + is chosen, then a panel should open
as suggested in the <b class="">attached image</b>. If "Enter coordinates
from world map" is chosen, then the orange bar at the top of the
globe is activated, allowing a click on the globe to be saved. If
text is used, there is a suitable text box. For me, it would mean a
lot if there is a clear indication whether the text coordinates have
(not) been accepted. Clicking the Apply or the Cancel button (or a
click on the globe) closes the panel. I assume that import from the
Companion Ap would follow the usual dialogue, not involved here. The
above would be mostly the existing code base with minimal new
programming.<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div><div>I don't think that's what we want.</div><div>What's odd is that right now you have to go to the Menu to edit a dive site instead of being able to trigger this from the Notes tab.

That needs massive work for all the amazing features that we have added.
Willem, will you be able to do that?</pre>

Absolutely. I will be in the US from Sept 11-Oct 9th but I am
available most of that time.<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div>Cool.
