Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

I plan to put it into gitorious soon, haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll post here when it's ready, probably some time over the next few days.

Gonna install this and have a play about.

It actually reminds me of an app that I used to use on the N95. Can't remember what it was called, but it was available from Nokia Betalabs.
I actually tracked my whole 300 mile journey from Suffolk to Exeter and back again. Glad they had power points on the trains so I could recharge my battery. :p

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

When starting the program while not connected to a network, & with Network Connection disabled in Tools, N900 prompts to select a network connection.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

I'd like to have it display the GPS time.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

Assisted GPS, unfortunately that's out of my control :/

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

Yeah, I'll add that, it's been on my minor tweaks list for ages as well ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

Congratulations on the interface. Technically impressive and efficient. And at last a replacement on the n900 for the uninstallable mini-gpsd.

Waypoint averaging would be nice....

A festive time to all.....
HA

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

gave it a go this evening on my way home from work. Worked quite well, but a few suggestions, if I may.

A zoom or scroll function for the tracker screen, so the whole track can be reviewed would be nice.

Also the ability to save tracks for future reference at a later date. Would also be a nice touch if it was possible to "play back" saved tracks as well.

Otherwise, everything's looking good so far. ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

Yeah, all those features are intended for v1.0 so expect them soon. On startup it'll load your previous logs when you've enabled file logging.

Zoom is currently available though not complete, you first have to press on the track view. Then you can use inc/dec buttons (aka volume keys) to zoom in and out. :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Columbus Navigation Toolkit
 

I would like to request the option of having the default maemo status bar visible. It has the potential to be remarkably ubiquitous, give that it has controls to flashlight and the status bar icons can contain things that the user may wish to see on a regular basis (wifi signal applet, cpumem applet, camera lens reminder - don't use that last one but I know many do). Even more ubiquitous due to MohammadAG's mod of hildon-desktop and hildon-home that allows you to have the status menu come out of the status bar in portrait mode.

At the same time, I understand from using your program that that's probably not very convenient, because right now Columbus Navigation Toolkit is really well designed, and most of the UI elements are placed in a way that leaves little space for a status bar. So I don't recommend making that the default behavior.

But it would be nice if it was possible to have another button to bring out the status bar, or a settings option where you can chose whether or not to have the status bar showing.
