Interactive Maps: Remaining issues with the short-tap behavior #3101

Open raindropsfromsky opened 8 years ago

Using the OsmAnd~2.4.0#18519M nightly, with the latest "active POI layer" feature. I checked this out in Bangalore (India).

Historically, Bangalore was a cantonment. So, even now, large parts of the city are marked as military area.

If I short-tap on these areas, the area is not identified. The short-tap does not work at all. If I long-press, the address is produced.

There are other "normal" city areas where the short-tap does not work at all. For example, Shivajinagar is a suburb of Bangalore.

(1) Desired: The short-tap should work in all cases. At the most, OsmAnd can show the next-higher administrative area.

For example-

Work in progress, I should say. But just for documentation:

(2) Wikipedia POIs not selectable still via the new tappable layer

(3) ALREADY FIXED: Tapping transport stops only gives the reduced information and functionality of the POI transport stop, should upgrade to what we offer when tapping a transport stop on the Transport layer (enabling selecting/displaying transport routes of he stop, etc.)

(4) Short tapping (and the appearance of the context menus) seems a little laggy on some devices, maybe we can somehow accelerate/prioritize to show the orange marker more immediately so users know if their tap "activated" anything, or if an area with no tappable targets was hit.

(5) I guess we should increase the "tappable area" of the zoom+/zoom- buttons to maybe a rectangle each with no gap between the 2 rectangles. As is now, on some occasions when not exactly hitting one of the zoom buttons and something "tappable" is behind, you get undesired re-centering behavior of the map to that POI.
