Map API, need suggestions for how to execute ideas
-
@RocketBlaster05 iOS MapKit does not allow a text in the button at right in the detail bubble list.
Only an emoji is allowed. I propose 🚮 and under: "(n)" if group.For a trash pin, do you want "(1)" below or nothing
-
-
@cvp yes that looks good.
-
@RocketBlaster05 there is not yet any process in my script, only display...still thinking
-
@cvp is it possible to put the word “needed” next to the (3) display? That would be the easiest for the user to understand. If not then just the (3) will be good.
-
@RocketBlaster05 so asked, so received
-
@cvp sorry if this an annoyance but I would prefer if the (3) was above needed. Sorry
-
@RocketBlaster05 so thus
-
@cvp yes. Sorry for the inconvenience
-
-
@RocketBlaster05 new Github available with some refreshing bugs solved and new feature of cleaning trash included. Please test and tell me
When a group is cleaned, it's pins disappear but it's circles will stay until next run.
-
@cvp works great! Once you manage to get the last step done of clearing the circles, I believe the map will finally be done! If I do follow through with making this an app, would you want payment or something? At the very least credits? I feel guilty having you do so much...

clearing the circles
I'm almost sure that I'll not be able to do that because, as said in a previous post, it seems that map overlay has a bug of refreshing... But I think you can live with it because next run clean them.

Yes, of course, you will pay me a beer when we meet 😂
-
@RocketBlaster05 Forget it. I should thank you to let me have fun (and learn also).
-
@cvp if you say so. At the very least I’ll put a special thanks to cvp somewhere in the app. One last thing I can think of... You should only be able to remove a pin or press the remove button if you are within 20 meters of it. Also, you should only be able to press the button one time per user (store on file that the user has already pressed the button to clear on the crosshairs) I don’t know how doable the second part is but I believe this is my final task for you. Thanks as always, cvp!
-
@RocketBlaster05 I could only display button, or enable it, if less than 20m.
But the other request: what is a "user"? If you want I keep user(s) in the file, what is their "Id"? -
@RocketBlaster05 what do you prefer:
- no button if user at more than 20m
- button disabled
- button enabled but alert if pressed and no action
-
@cvp 3rd option is best. I want people to know they can clean it, but when they press on it it will tell them they have to be closer.
-
@cvp Maybe this whole ‘ID’ thing would be for later... I do expect to have an account system because it will open up for customizable accounts (and some money making) so that’s going to be a while down the line I guess.
