I'm adding database of all locations with >>15 000 population & now clicking on London gives "Leicester, Kettering and Scarborough" but not "London" =) [15:54] xnox, 99% chance it's a bug, 1% chance it's political nonsense [15:58] mpt: I mean it's really hard to click on london on the map size it is. And with much denser amount of "targets" how to best select something "more sensible" =) [15:58] (note this is for offline installation / no-geoip case) [16:02] xnox, maybe the higher population a city is, the more it should "crowd out" points around it [16:05] mpt: hm for point & click interface I guess I want: all capitals / timezone defining points (418) + top 5 by population cities in 10x10px area around the target click.... [16:05] and cycle around them.... [16:05] * xnox shall think about it. [16:11] xnox, perhaps it would help, when testing theories like that, to generate a chart of how much cycling is required [16:11] e.g. yellow = 1 cycle, orange = 2, red = 3, pink = 4 [16:12] mpt: the UfA proposes to do 2 click (1) zoom (2) select. [16:12] Oh cripes, UfA has it's own design for things again? [16:12] Why why why why why [16:14] xnox, we had zooming in early Ubuntu versions, about 6.10 to 8.04 [16:14] It was pestilential [16:15] xnox, is this a design document with a name on it? [16:17] mpt: I think you are aware of which document it is. Let me look up again. [16:17] mpt: note that UfA has much smaller than desktop screen. and fingers are much fatter than mouse. [16:17] I'm really not [16:17] xnox, wait, is this setup on a phone itself? [16:18] Sorry, I thought this was like the other UfA things that were slight variations of the PC version [16:19] Zooming on a phone would make a lot of sense ... Not only are fingers fatter than a mouse pointer, they can also move much more finely. [16:19] mpt: well pinch-to-zoom ideally =) [16:19] mpt: hmm... can't find it at the moment, never mind.
