List of former destinations for internal GUI additional feature: Deletion of a selected destination

[martin bruns]

Ticket ​http://trac.navit-project.org/ticket/943# introduces a new feature, with former destinations unfortunately selecting a destination misses the possibility to delete that destination.

Please add this additional feature

I'm not sure this makes sense. The list of former destinations is supposed to be a history of your last/recent destinations. So I feel that making it editable does not really make sense.

If you want a list of your favorite destinations, which you can edit as you see fit, then use bookmarks, that's what they are for :-).

Maybe you could explain the situation where you'd find it useful to delete a former destination?

And BTW, there should probably be a menu entry "add as bookmark" for the former destinations, to make it easier to convert a former destination to a bookmark; I'm in the process of adding this.

(Disclaimer: I implemented the patch for the list of former destinations).

Done "add as bookmark" in ​http://navit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/navit?view=revision&revision=4841. Sorry ;)

@tryagain:

No problem :-). I had not gotten round to implementing it yet. At any rate, there's still lots of work left.

About this feature request:

If you want to delete former destinations to prevent the list from getting too long: You can set a limit for the size of the list of former destinations in your navit.xml. It's in element "navit", attribute "recent_dest" (see the example navit.xml).

Since there has been no feedback on this feature request for over a year, I'm closing it as "incomplete".
