Ticket #467 – Description
initial v2 1 1 k, since im not native english and im not shure if im at the right place right here this texts is ganna be a little bigger, so sorry for that. 2 2 3 Im just working on an "as generic as possible"configuration for navits (internal) gui and ran into some disadvantages (that i couldnt find information or solution for)3 Im just working on an '''"as generic as possible"''' configuration for navits (internal) gui and ran into some disadvantages (that i couldnt find information or solution for) 4 4 5 5 my goal is the following: 6 i created a base layout wich i moved out of the userspace7 i created a generic mapset config (for osm maps only) that will fetch all maps in a specific location (~/.navit/maps)8 now i want to do the same for skins and inconsets6 * i created a base layout wich i moved out of the userspace 7 * i created a generic mapset config (for osm maps only) that will fetch all maps in a specific location (~/.navit/maps) 8 * now i want to do the same for skins and inconsets 9 9 so if the user creates or fetches another theme he should just copy it over to ~/.navit/skins/skin-name/ and it should be recognized by navit and ability sould be provided from the gui to switch the available skins 10 10 same to iconsets i want to locate them to ~/.navit/icons/set-name 11 11 and have the ability to choose from gui too 12 a perfect thing for the last task would be to be able to define in navit.xml the pathes that should be searchd for available themes/iconsets plus having navit to only request one image formate.g. right now navits requesting some icons in .png, some in .xpm and even some in .svg format.. i guess it would be a great thing if it would just request kind of a template "poi_name.format", where the very best thing would be if the actual format could be defined in a configuration file belonging to the respective icon_set12 a perfect thing for the last task would be to be able to define in navit.xml the pathes that should be searchd for available themes/iconsets plus having navit to only request '''one image format''' e.g. right now navits requesting some icons in .png, some in .xpm and even some in .svg format.. i guess it would be a great thing if it would just request kind of a template "poi_name.format", where the very best thing would be if the actual format could be defined in a configuration file belonging to the respective icon_set 13 13 (navit looks for available iconsets (folders under ~/.navit/icons) -> fetching iconset's configuration file wich contains a list of items thats been covered (by name) and a configuration point named image format which contains the image format thats valid for the whole iconset) items that are not available in the user-chosen iconset should just silently be ignored 14 14 … … 16 16 17 17 now ive got one more point: 18 the internal-guis menu should be customizabletoo (i know the icons can be replaced, but what i think of is just having the ability to define icons positions, menus backgrounds, and even just dropping unused items (e.g. in a system thats completely designed for touchscreen usage, there will be a systemwide onscreen keyboard, so it would be great to just remove navit's osk, cause its not nessecary then, and would make room to enlarge the (city-or-streets) list (wich needs scrollbars and/or up down buttons btw.)18 the internal-guis '''menu should be customizable''' too (i know the icons can be replaced, but what i think of is just having the ability to define icons positions, menus backgrounds, and even just dropping unused items (e.g. in a system thats completely designed for touchscreen usage, there will be a systemwide onscreen keyboard, so it would be great to just remove navit's osk, cause its not nessecary then, and would make room to enlarge the (city-or-streets) list (wich needs scrollbars and/or up down buttons btw.) 19 19 20 20 long speech short, internal gui needs a little more love and flexibility ;-)
