URO+ is having some issues in WME beta with the update that came out.

It's a conspiracy. He's working for The Man......

Beta looks good for me. Love the ability to hide that massive, and unneeded, profile section. I mean, I know who I am and where to find my info. That's what the profile page.

The "Disable map move on UR selection" option isn't working for me.

In fact, it's making it much worse. When selected, I'm zooming in to some area not even close to the UR. With the option not selected, I'm zoomed in much closer.


[UPDATE]

I realized that the option is only when clicking on a UR, not when you zoom in. My other issue now is clicking the GPS icon. With the option selected or not, I'm not zoomed in properly. I'm guessing that's something this script can't fix?

(I opened a Trafficast marked UR, and literally there was only three lines of text showing...)

Are you referring to the pop-up feature you get when you hover over a UR?

I don't think URO+ can change the size of the UR box. That sounds like something Waze Devs would need to do. Besides, it sounds like your traffic cast only has three lines. All my URs are massive if the text is long.

UR/MPs pop-ups are opening upon selecting a UR or MP via the new feature (I am not allowed to discuss so please don't ask). After selecting that UR/MP and the pop-up shows, it will not go away. Regardless of the settings, the pop-up will not go away. It is locked to that one MP/UR. Selecting a different one will not change the pop-up.

I have a screenshot that I can PM.

What they want is the same feature live map has. In live map, when you zoom out, all nearby pins are grouped together. As you zoom in, they space out. The closer you get, the more the URs spread and ungrouped.


That would mean to have TB be able to count the number of URs in a given field, supress those URs and display a special icon with a UR count to show how many URs/MPs are in that cluster.

If x= +/-##
then hide XX, insert image, add number hidden (bottom right)


Mind you I have the code skills from Hypercard and Hypercard 2.

I'm not sure if this was fixed or not (haven't tested) but auto-centering works for me. When I click on a UR/MP/PUR, WME now centers over that report. If I click to zoom in, it zooms in over the report.

I just tried. Clicking on a UR centered the UR itself on the screen. When clicking the button at the top right when you click a UR, it auto-zooms right over the UR. The way it was suppose to.

Many of us will open the map to a specific area and preview URs by opening them from zoom-0 before opening in a new window to look more closely.

The problem with the auto-center is this "specific area" keeps moving, and in my case, if I'm working just east of downtown LA, I'm going to keep the huge cluster of URs off-screen unless I'm at zoom 4 or tighter due to the loading times (and timeouts).
With auto-center, I can't open a UR anywhere west of the 605 at Zoom-0 without getting the LA cluster pulled into the screen.
[Update]

For me, the auto-centering is working. It always centers right over the UR. Clicking the cross-hairs puts it right over the UR and the tracks if the report managed to grab them.

I'm also not seeing any options to disable this.
