Re: [Announce] EasyPark - Park your car and find it again.
 

I've just added zoom buttons! If you reload EasyPark they will appear on the bottom of the map.

Adding a scroll control turned out to be more difficult than I expected. But there is a way to scroll the map: swipe from left to right to turn on the cursor mode of the browser. Then you can use your finger to scroll the map. But remember that EasyPark always wants to show your current position, if you scroll it off the map EasyPark will scroll the map back. By zooming out you can see locations further away from your current position.

I will update the manual on the EasyPark website to describe the new functionality.

Works perfectly! :) now the app can be also used to quickly look around when one arrives at an unknown destination and needs to find a way to a certain street from the parking spot. thank you for the quick update. your app is already better than the maemo ovi maps in some important aspects: loads quicker and has more up-to-date maps (for my location).

downloaded tried it, hit the status and you are stuck at status screen cant get back to map screen. tried all the buttons. and back button on the browser too didnt work.

Two remarks to scrolling and zoom:
1. the default zoom level could be decreased. I like the zoom level when I click the zoom out button once from the current default level - it still has all the street names, but one can see a bigger portion of the map
2. the scrolling could be smoother - when I use google mobile maps themselves, the scrolling works much better

You can use the small <close> button in the top-right of the screen to go back to the map screen.

Tried EasyPark yesterday and got a bit disappointed. Storing position works fine, even after closing browser and later reopening shows parked status. but parking time always starts with 23:00:00 and later when testing it, it got reset. Don't know why but it lost about one hour.

Another very annoying thing is the display of the map when routing. I walked straight to the edge of the map and then the map began to move, but my position was near the edge of the map until I got back to my car. I'd rather see my position on the opposite edge of the map so I can see the way to go and not the way already gone (I hope this was clearly explained).

Re: [Announce] EasyPark - Park your car and find it again.
 

You are right! I decreased the default zoom level.

Thanx for finding this bug. It was caused by not taking the recent daylight saving time change into account. Fixed!

The scenario you describe is not very userfriendly indeed. Therefore EasyPark will zoom the map in such a way that the whole route is visible.

I already deployed the changes, and they will become available after the page is reloaded (or afther one day, which is the default cache time).

Thanx for helping me make EasyPark better!

It is not necessary to have the complete route visible. The zoom should be set to a useful level where one still can see relevant details, but the actual position and walking direction should point into the map, not out of the map.

JapieB,

Could you look at my post below:

Is it possible to add this functionality to your app and make it a wider use?
