--------------- qtlocation-opensource-src (5.3.0-0ubuntu4) utopic; urgency=medium [ Christian Dywan ] * Add debian/patches/appSpecificTileCache.diff (LP: #1276658) -- Timo Jyrinki <timo-jyri...@ubuntu.com> Tue, 09 Sep 2014 06:55:28 +0000 ** Changed in: qtlocation-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to qtlocation-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1276658 Title: Add offline cache Status in “qtlocation-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: The app should be able to cache downloaded tiles to be used in future runs of the app. In contrast to the download tile pack feature, that allows downloading a region before going on holiday; this would provide faster viewing of previously viewed areas especially when the user has poor signal, as well as less bandwidth usage etc. At present, the QML component caches downloaded tiles while the app is running, but upon closing the app this is all forgotten, and it must download from scratch again the next time it is loaded. So, tiles should be stored in a permanent cache, so that it is not required to download them everytime the app is started. Note: Similar apps allow the user to specify the size of the cache, to meet their requirements. So, they can set the cache size to 1MB or 500MB etc. depending on their needs. https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-41187 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtlocation-opensource-src/+bug/1276658/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
