10<H2>Bugs</H2>
11
12<ul>
13<li>This gives "*** Singular!!!" warning with DEBUG_INVALID on:
14<pre>
151 2 50000 0 -
161 2 5 0 -30
17</pre>
18
19<li>After *solve, reused points get written to the .3d file again.  This
20is pretty harmless, but untidy.
21
22<li>Aven presentation recording crashes if you select the "Finish and
23Save" menu item twice.
24
25<li>Fix aven scaling crash
26
27<li>Load a .pos file and no stations are shown - I think the problem
28is in aven, as img looks to be setting the station "underground" flag...
29
30</ul>
31
32<H2>Aven</H2>
33
34<ul>
35
36<li>Profile aven (for speed and memory usage)
37
38<li>clino needs resistance around 0
39
40<li>scale bar dragging factor needs slight tweak
41
42<li>finish reverse controls
43
44<li>possible mysterious problem with [ and ] not zooming to screen centre
45
46<li>suppress warning box if wxWindows doesn't have translations in requested
47language (doesn't appear to be possible)
48
[f17dbe2]49<li>continuing trouble with accelerator keys:
50
51<ul>
52<li>"[", "]", "'", and "/" accelerators don't work (on MS Windows 98)
53<li>Some keystrokes in the "Search box" are interpreted as accelerators
54</ul>
[0e26b3a]55
56<li>Accents in menus were working but suddenly stopped - I think this
57happened when I upgraded debian and a new libgtk package got
58installed... [from Mark: libgtk1.2 1.2.10-1 exhibits these symptoms]
[f17dbe2]59[from Olly: installing "locales" package fixes this for me...]
[0e26b3a]60
61<li>releasing drag over menubar doesn't send event properly
62
63<li>Close button in About box not in correct place (on MS Windows)
64
[f17dbe2]65<li>"random lines" when zooming in a lot on wxaven for GTK (xcaverot too)
66- fix by doing the clipping ourselves?
[0e26b3a]67
68<li>by default put crosses on those points with no legs attached (unused
69fixed points)?
70
71<li>click on station to centre; type in station to centre
72
73<li>label junctions/dead ends?
74
75<li>colour by traverse
76
77<li>section colouring/selective labelling
78
79<li>clipping - want to select a clip sphere (or maybe cube) centred on
80centre on rotation I think.
81
82<li>shift-ed keys should move faster (as they do in caverot)
83
84<li>colour by cave (and more generally by sub-prefix):
85"aven --survey 161 --colour-by-sub-prefix all.3d" would result in
86lhroute, rhroute, adrian, etc all getting different colours...
87
88<li>check on monochrome displays - especially that depth colouring
89looks OK
90
91<li>Redraw time should feed back to step size (so small caves on
92fast puters look sane, and so autorotate keeps an even speed when
93little can be seen for part of each rotation)
94
95<li>glcaverot features - perspective view and depth fogging...
96
97<li>Mark: "surface.png is for a textured landscape -- there needs to be a
98menu option to select the texturing on/off, and this should be the
99texture used. map.png is just a different surface overlay for Loser."
100
101<li>Remould presentation recording into the more usual "New"/"Save
102As"/"Load"/"Save" mould
103
104</ul>
105
106<H2>Printing</H2>
107
108<ul>
109
[f17dbe2]110<li>Check skip blank pages works (checked printps)...
[0e26b3a]111
112<li>/etc/survex/example.print.ini ?
113
114</ul>
115
116<H2>Documentation</H2>
117
118<ul>
119
120<li>doc/manual.sgml has version number (0.99 currently) hardcoded.
121
122<li>Platform specific versions of docs?
123
124<li>Put more terms in terminology in docs ? trip, instrument, ...
125
126</ul>
127
128<H2>Survex file format</H2>
129
130<ul>
131
132<li>flag legs as "skeletal" or something? (i.e. not in the cave passage) -
133e.g. a radiolocation leg from one passage to another isn't surface,
134but it isn't in the cave itself either (it's through rock).  You could
135just call it surface but maybe later we want to use the surface
136flag to produce points for a surface triangulation...
137
138<li>?outlaw prefixes on stations in data legs (as Todd has lobbied for)
139and then the prefix of a leg == prefix of each end...?
140
141<li>comma separated dates in *date?
142
143<li>Allow "*exportall" or similar?  Leandro's point about "maze caves" -
144just saying "don't use *export" is unhelpful if someone connects a
145cave with *export to one without...
146
147<li>Find a solution to Thilo's "." problem.
148
149</ul>
150
151<H2>Internationalisation</H2>
152
153<ul>
154
155<li>update translations
156
157<li>extract help screen from caverot.c for translation
158
159<li>How to select alternative language on MS Windows - setting env
160vars isn't easy win install lang??
161
162<li>quotes in messages - translate too? e.g. `XXX' to « XXX ».  Eric
163suggests not in French.
164
165<li>extract --help messages for translation.
166
[49920d0]167<li>Check menu short-cuts don't clash in each translation...
[0e26b3a]168
169</ul>
170
171<H2>Miscellaneous</H2>
172
173<ul>
174
175<li>chase up zombies again?
176
177<li>resolve entries in TODO; resolve FIXMEs in code
178
179<li>Default variance for topofil counter? (currently same as that of tape)
180
181<li>Rather than forming a linked list of components, solve each as it is
182identified?  Beware of issues like those that revcomplist test checks.
183
184<li>Don't split other traverses at articulating traverses when reporting error
185stats.
186
187<li>test diving data with compass omitted (plumbed)
188
189<li>tests for direction - should direction work in non-interleaved data?
190
191<li>improve 3d torture test and try to automate its use if possible.
192
193<li>caverot: on RISC OS now fall back to using 2 or even just one screen
194bank if we can't find a mode where we can create 3 banks [FIXME: need
195to test this works]
196
197<li>Retire survex wrapper (no-survex-wrapper.patch) for version 1.0.
198
199<li>Allow extend (or printing of extend) to unfold right-left instead of
200left to right?
201
202<li>cylpolar with dz rather than depth?
203
204<li>survex apt source for survex, survex-aven, and wxgtk2.2 so apt-get
205survex will work on potato...
206
207<li>ISO image?  structure debian packages on it as an apt source.
208autorun for MS Windows?
