Description Thomas Kamps 2010-05-10 17:40:10 UTC

Version:           0.10.0 SVN (using 4.4.75 (KDE 4.4.75 (KDE 4.5 >= 20100505)) "release 2", KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop / openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31.8-0.1-default

I played around a bit with the new marble routing feature. And i have a suggestion: The user should be informed that Marble is routing/finished with it.

When i press the "Get Directions" button i do not get an information that Marble is routing. So i don't know if there is no route or if it is still routing.

And if Marble does not find a route it should tell the user.

There's a progress indicator when an existing route is being modified: The route is painted dotted. It doesn't cover everything though, especially not the download triggered by the Get Directions button. Failures should be more explicit as well, right.

SVN commit 1125135 by nienhueser:

Use a progress indicator in the Get Directions button to indicate when a route is being downloaded in the background.

SVN commit 1125136 by nienhueser:

When retrieving no data (e.g. server timeout), display a "please try again" message. Also display a warning if ors reports an error that is not attached to any route point (usually happens when ways are not connected).
