User configurable default zoom level #95

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
A User should be able to configure a default zoom level to be used when 
displaying the track with OSM background enabled.

I think about two options to add to preferences:
* zoom level for OSM background
  - last used zoom Level
  - default zoom level

* default zoom level (spinner or choice)
 - 10
 - 11
 - 12
 - 13
 - 15
 - ...

Agreed, that would be nice.

What is the "last used zoom level" for ? I mean do you see it as an internal 
preference never shown to the user, or is it a configurable one ?

It would be cool to have "meaningful" values instead of arbitrary numbers, such 
as "Street", "City", "State", "Country" or something like that, if that make 
sense.

"last used zoom level" means that the zoom level will be restored from the last 
zoom level you used in TrackMap (see issue#73)

Meaningful values are a good point for users who don't really know OSMs zoom 
levels.
But for users who know the zoom levels, 14 will be more precise than "City" 
because depending on the size of the city it could also be 13 or 15.

Perhaps we should display the numbered zoom levels in parenthesis:
- House (18)
- Street (16)
- City (14)
- State (9)
- Country (5)
