Thanks, I'm just referring to the wiki on the 1000 miles thingy, unless the part of the wiki was outdated? :oops: :oops:

In Malaysia, we have similar experiences even just for roads about 500 km. However, I guess this should be discussed in another topic? I'm just pointing out from the wiki since it says 1000 miles, which I take it as it is since there's no place in Malaysia which is more than 1000 miles. Haha

On another suggestion regarding the UrComments, although the presets are all great and working and many others are asking for more options, I personally think that the URO+ is already doing this greatly and we can actually just manually tick/untick whatever options we like without needing the UrComments' presets. It's great to have automatic selection of a certain options, but I just feel that the presets is just an added feature and we can actually make do without it?

Hmm, well since the presets are just making use of the features in URO+ and I've pretty much known which one I will tick and change in the URO+ selections, I find myself using less of the UrComments presets. Plus I think rickzabel is hinting that he's not gonna continue updating the presets in the future? Anyways, the presets are wonderful, if it's there, let it be, I have no problem with that

Thanks a lot for the hard work and effort for making this script. Made editing much more easier and livelier :)

I've experienced a weird issue lately with the "Auto close comment window" option enabled and "Auto save after a solved or not identified comment" disabled. Let's say I've insert a new comment in a UR and the auto close function works flawlessly. After that, if I open the same UR, select an auto comment reported as "Solved" or "Not Identified" , the "Auto close comment window" doesn't close the window. However, this issue doesn't occur when selecting other comments reported as "Open".

Volunteer responding - did you have an update request on [highlighted street name]?
If you're planning to modify the custom comment list, then no you can't. You would also need to consider street with no name :)

Being able to automatically send the default comment for all URs without a description. Similar to the "Auto-send reminders" feature. Instead of having to manually click each description-less UR by hand, waiting for the autofill to show in the comment box, and hitting send...just have URC do this all on its own. This would only apply to the URs in the field of view/zoom level and would require a confirmation dialogue box to ensure you want to follow and comment on that many URs at once.

Thoughts?
This might work for some situations, but in some cases just looking at the GPS path and route provide enough information to resolve, so auto-posting a response may result in a UR being 'ignored' and potentially closed out without action if the reporter doesn't provide feedback. An example might be a "turn not allowed" at an intersection which disallows u-turns but the junction is misconfigured and allowed them.

I noticed that the @match string doesn't have the same restrictions as recommended. The code should look something like this at the top:

Code: Select all

// @include			/^https:\/\/(www|beta)\.waze\.com\/(?!user\/)(.{2,6}\/)?editor\/?.*$/
This matches all occurrences options, including localized versions while skipping out on the user profile page. The current version allows the user profile page to be included, which results in it running when it doesn't need to. Why's this a problem? Some regions use the more restrictive, such as USA_SouthCentral, so when URC runs, it cannot find the USA_SouthCentral comments, and reverts the settings back to the default. Which in turn breaks the WME window next time you reload.

Hi Rick,

Thanks for the quick repair, i did not lose my custom comments, (from the slack chat) although after reading some of the forum post i think i will have to re do them to remove somethings.

i use your script everyday, so i have noticed an issue that i'm not sure is yours or not, i have left a message over in the UR-Mp Tracker thread also.

before the update i would use the UR tracker to order and track the URs i was going to work on, when on the list i would select the UR and it would pop up on the screen, when i completed my comment selection or accepting the auto comment i would hit send, the UR would close,(so far all of that happens) the URO+ tab would close and the UR-MP Tracking tab would reappear, that is not happening now. i do have the Auto switch to the UrComments tab checked which sayes it will return you to the last tab.

so i don't know if it is a bug on your side. if it is i hope you can address it, with your script i have addressed over 800 URs in the past month. so not having the extra key strokes is a great time saver.

now my selfish additional request is when returning you to the last tab if it could bring you back to the vertical position in the tab you were at before the auto jump to your tab would be great and if not that maybe an option for a force back to the top.

Thanks John Brooklyn NY USA
