To-do next:

• change arrow keys to move in a logical direction, not the pre-transform direction
• base animated tracers on speed data
  • vary by colour or animation speed? or both?
• move colour values out to XML config file

Possible ideas for future versions:

• a colour legend for the speed rendering mode
• Integration with Google Maps, overlay routes on map tiles
• I’m not sure the interaction makes as much sense as it could. Half the time when I click to drag, I expect the map to move instead of rotate. The other half I’m expecting rotation.
  • Holding shift and dragging might be nice as a way of moving the map
  • Also, compensating for map rotation when using arrow keys would be handy.

To-done:

1.12

• secret keyboard shortcuts: p to save a PNG, P to save a PDF, and r to reload all data
• initial resizable window support

1.11

• Improved GPX/TCX error handling
• speed values now indicated in km/h
• keyboard shortcuts now match UI controls, ie. hitting ‘c’ also toggles the checkbox.
• secret mode 5 improved

1.1

• reduced CPU load
• Quick toggle between 2D and 3D modes
• Add UI control for 2D / 3D toggle
• Adjusted view buttons to add animated mode
• basic animated paths (tracers)
• figure out a way to add a few extra render modes to the UI (added connectors checkbox which buys some time; still only a need for 4 buttons, though 5 is looming)
• converted lat/long coordinates to meters
• adjust all internal rendering to use meters instead of previous fudged scale
• reprojected as Mercator
• Map legend / scale indicators
  • built UI elements to display scale
  • figure out a more exponential zoom function so it’s faster on the low end, slower on the high end
• figure out how to convert lat/long coordinates to a UTM grid, to correct for latitude skew.
• fix scale to be accurate to reality, which probably means fixing internal scale of map
• add numbers/measurements to scale

1.02

• fix 0,0 coordinate bug with TCX
• get time working in TCX files
