Automatically provide track name #127

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently, when beginning a track, the user must manually enter a track name if 
he wants to name the track. If the application automatically generated a track 
name [say, 201007211801, for a track started 21 July 2010 at 18:01], the user 
would be free to delete the track name [for a blank track name], enter their 
own track name, or use the default.

This would allow for much quicker beginnings of tracks, and wouldn't require 
typing, which isn't always practical when doing the sort of active things one 
does when using a GPS logger.

The naming dialog could be easier with a default name. 

Please note that regardless of entering a name the logging starts. You could 
even log an entire track with the naming dialog open/ignored.

Added a skip button to the naming the track dialog which generates a default 
name for the track e.g. "Track 2010-07-24 16:44"

That's absolutely splendid! I had to rename several dozen tracks today, and it 
served as a delightful reminder of how useful this change could be. Bravo!
