- Planned additions to EarthMap
- -----------------------------
- The current capabilities of EarthMap are not what they could be. What I
- considered to be of prime importance *is* there : convenient viewing
- (panning/zooming), and draw file output.
-
- The following additions are planned :
-
- - Editing of detail colours
- - Variable draw file page size (A4 currently)
- - Possibly improved zooming facilities (even though this is already
- extensive, easy zooming is of vital importance)
- - 'Click-and-go' to (predefined) continents, countries, cities maybe, from
- defined or maybe user-editable list
- - Coordinate boundary lines in viewer on/off (adjustable resolution)
- - Other projections (lots of maths, so would slow rendering and would present
- much work)
- - Really smart 'background' redraw ... Well, current 'drag-skip' works ok ...
-
- As I have many other priorities, and I made EarthMap just for fun, don't hold
- your breath waiting for these to materialize. If needed, contact me at the
- address given in 'Guide' to see how things are progressing (if at all).
