Feature request: offer an option to turn off pop-ups during stops #9

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. stop at a light
2. as soon as the speed drops for over 5 seconds or so, annoying information 
about surrounding reports unrelated to my route start scrolling

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd like an option in the General settings to turn this unwanted feature off.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.0.9, latest Community MAEMO for N900

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm tempted to check out the code and mess with it, but I'm more of a dynamic 
languages, DevOps kind of guy. Think I could help?

I have changed the priority as currently there are higher priority items for 
the project.
Currently I am working on rewriting the entire UI in QML, once its done I'll 
see if it is easily obtainable.

oh I have a few things to say about the UI. size of buttons, fonts, lack of 
indication of the next turn's name, etc. I'll try to dig into the code on the 
weekend.

OK, bear in mind that most of the UI code is about to be deleted, so I'll not 
advice making huge changes as it will be a waste of your time. The current UI 
layer is utterly @#$@#$.

You can find most control templates (buttons, dialog) under the ssd directory. 
The ssd implementation relies on qt_canvas.cc for Qt implementation.

New UI discussion is at http://code.google.com/p/waze-qt/issues/detail?id=11

Changed state: Done

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

so I have noticed. I'm not going to touch the UI, I just want to add a settings 
menu on-off switch for the pop-up updates and ads, and then use that setting to 
disable the routine that pops them up, that's it. no GUI code at all.

OK, when you do, send me the patch and I'll include it in the next minor 
release.

Thanks!
