I haven’t played with Subsurface for a while, so I compiled the recent master. Here’s some feedback: (1) The Notes » Location field needs an Edit button (2) The “Create dive site” pulldown should stick to the Location field. It doesn’t always do that: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1087529/location-1.png (3) Selecting the “Create dive site” entry in the Location pulldown should open the Dive site edit dialog, I think. Also, when I save the changes from that dialog, the Dive should not be in edit mode. (4) Dive site management needs its own view, so that I can browse/edit/delete dive sites (5) I go to View » Dive site edit (which the button in (1) should point to). I enter coordinates copied from Google Maps: 34.071704,-118.4173973. This should zoom the globe to that position and set the flag. It doesn’t. (6) If I just paste coordinates into the Coordinates field, the field doesn’t switch to “edit mode” (the field background doesn’t turn yellow). I need to type within the coordinate string to make Subsurface register it as an edit. (7) Sometime Subsurface crashes when I apply dive site changes, but not always: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1087529/location-crash.txt (8) Zooming the marble map with the touch pad is really difficult. It jumps and stumbles. I *really* miss that zoom bar. The plus/minus keyboard buttons work somewhat, but they’re slow. (9) The first time I entered a dummy name for a new dive site, I got three identical warnings that “geonames cannot lookup this site” (in a red box at the bottom of the screen). (10) When I select a dive, and do “edit dive site”, only the currently selected dive is shown in the bottom-left quadrant. I guess it should list all the dives on this the dive site? Or maybe I’m only seeing the result of (11)? (11) In the Location box, if I select a different dive site from the pulldown, it only copies the name. It doesn’t actually use that other dive site. (12) have opened a log file, and the Location field seems editable, so I try that to change its name. But if I try that, a “Create dive site” box appears. As a new user it would not be obvious to me how to change the name. Maybe a “Rename dive site to: asdfsdfsdf” should be in that pull-down? But that pull-down is so crowded already. So, this is a can of worms. I’ll try to think some more.
