New Flash Application

Postby PeteH on Fri Nov 06, 2009 5:36 pm

The new flash app doesn't seem to be working correctly.
It doesn't display the speed and when you hit play, it does nothing.

I'll second this. At first I though it was my browser. But I've tried 3 browsers now and it doesn't work on any of them. What's going on?

What happened to the speed and elevation graphs???????????

Postby tbracci on Fri Nov 06, 2009 7:10 pm

So I logged on tonight to view a recent trip and see that the speed and elevation have been merged into one graph. This is awful since the scale for the elevation goes up over 3,000 feet which makes it impossible to review any of the speed data. The "play" function doesn't work either.

How can I switch back to the OLD format where they were seperate?

'DOH! Didn't see this thread before I started a new one.......

But I agree, the new format stinks. I prefer the speed and elevation graphs to be seperate. Those two stats cannot possibly share the same scale.

Very much dislike the new format. Please bring back the old format with the graphs beside the map.

I also like the old format better! The graph in the new format is useless.

I echo ashevillemike's concerns.

For me, there are several huge problems:

1. For trips having lots of photos, photos pop up and the shrink automatically. It makes it impossible to appreciate the GPS track at all. Showing, archiving, searching, download GPX / KML in Everytrail's members database make this site unique and useful.

2. The previous trip stat box was placed side-by-side with the main GPS track. Pressing the play button showed a trip process with reference to elevation. Placing the mouse pointer to any point of the track / elevation curve gave valuable about the altitude of the route. Nil found in the new format.

3. People is now having larger and larger screen turf. 1920x1080 is becoming common place. "Viewing full screen" button scale the terrain to the extent that the map generator cannot provide such scale for the place.

I admire the team's effort to upgrade the look of the board. However, please do not put too much eye-candy thing on the core business of the Board - Viewing and sharing the TRAIL.

Thanks very much.

Take a recent trip I viewed and liked for example, the continuous pop of photos is simply distracting to view the route.

pourquoi ce nouveau format

Postby jpbcmi77 on Sat Nov 07, 2009 2:16 am

Bonjour,

Pour moi, vidéaste, le nouveau format ne me convient pas du tout : la chose qui était la plus interessante, sur votre site était l'image video obtenue du tracé de mes parcours à l'écran (stats + play) : je pouvais capturer celle ci et l'insérer dans mes films. Pourquoi avoir supprimer cette possibilité : quel dommage.

Cordialement
