Merge edit and view experience; change view-visualization #57

Open tordans opened 2 years ago

tordans commented 2 years ago

Even after a while, I am still struggling with the two modes of "view" and "edit".

I would like to discuss to change this part of the app.

Some things I think could be improve:

To solve this, I suggest to always use the editor-query that shows all lanes, but change the way the tags are presented on the map based on the view vs. edit mode. The non-tagged lanes would become visible and clickable in view-mode, but are only displayed very softly. The info-panel in view-mode could say something along the line of "to tags preset, yet, please add edit to add tags" with link to edit mode.

The edit checkmark could then be removed in favor of this more visible entry point to editing.


@zlant and maybe @jakecoppinger let me know what you think. Thanks.

It may be possible to add a panel that no data was found and a proposal to edit the map

Or if little or no data, then enable edit mode

I plan to add regular parking lots in the future. This would improve the content of the map.

It would be nice to connect the background from iD-editor here with loading data by tiles, history of changes, supporting relationships
