Mission Planner to display loaded coordinates #480

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Feature that you'd like us to add or change you'd like us to make:

When the the Mission Planner pops up the dialog "change Home to loaded 
coordinates" display the coordinates in the dialog box. that way I can decide 
whether they're useful or not, since never clear to me what those coords may be.

Depending whether it's loading from a file or from the MAV and whether the GPS 
in the MAV has a lock, the coords could be where it was last booted, or (0,0) 
or something.

If the wrong coords are loaded the map zooms out to display Home in the 
Atlantic Ocean or somewhere miles away and well as the mission coords that were 
just loaded.

If I'm using my laptop with its clunky little touchpad it's tedious to zoom and 
pan back to the right location. The 'zoom to' feature can help, but only if 
google is available and I'm located somewhere google has a name for.

If the "loaded coordinates" for Home are miles away from the rest of the 
mission, or Home coords are not available then maybe put Home arbitrarily in 
the middle of the map and zoom level that encompasses the mission coords.
