I started to remap to get 1 back to being Clear Geometry. When I did that, the Segment List that was option 1 disappeared.

Then, I tried to map Select Segments (which was showing none) as 3. That worked fine - except pressing 3 brings up the Segment List dialogue, which is still missing from the list of shortcuts.
My apologies - I was wrong/confused! :oops:

The keyboard shortcut for "Select Segments" is for the WME-Addons-type select segment dialogue. What confused me is that the Toolbox has it's own "Select Segments" function - the green tick icon on the toolbar. You might want to change the name of one of those 2 functions to avoid confusion.

I'd also echo the comment about having "1" as clear geometry - not necessarily for the "intuitive" reason, but simply for consistency with what it used to be. But it's easy enough to re-map. :)

Also, also, I'd just like to add my thanks for such a wonderful tool (assuming I haven't done it before somewhere further up ;) ).

Minor bug report.

If you de-select "Activate popups" whilst a popup is currently being shown, that popup gets left behind on the screen.

I'm still seeing the bug with the popups. Exact steps to reproduce:
  • Select a roundabout segment whilst popups are active - pop up appears
  • Open Toolbox Configuration Panel and de-select Activate Popups. The visible popup remains on screen - selecting other segments does not affect it.
  • Re-selecting Activate Popups will clear the stranded popup unless the original segment is still selected
With reference to WME-Addons, I have no problem with the loss of the "Remove Nodes" function. I found it to cause more problems than it solved - removing nodes it shouldn't and selecting nodes outside the area you thought you were looking at. I would however like to request a couple of features that I did frequently use WME-Addons for:
  • Adjust snap distance
  • "Large" select in landmark option
  • Open in Livemap - mainly because the livemap link is always hidden by "F" fullscreen option
These may already be on your to-do list - and if not, they're not massively important. :)

Connecting to https://www.wazeteam.com:

Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with the server or it may be requiring a client authentication certificate that you don't have.
Error code: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

Plus errors in the console suggesting it can't get components from the wazeteam server.

Nothing we can do about it now - but I'm sure Oyyodams will sort it as soon as he can. :)

Sorry to possibly add to your work. :(

The UK has different rules on roundabout road types from the general Junction Style Guide.

FWIW, the JNF roundabout fixing function seems to work correctly for the UK.

@tonestertm

That is not an edit count - it's a count of undoable changes. If you select a node and hold down Q you will see the same effect. When you hit Save, you will be credited with one edit for each change in the map since your last save. If you've changed to same item 500 times, you'll get 1 edit - and then only if the net results of your actions has changed it since the last save.

sketch wrote:now it does the weird fast panning all the time
Well spotted! I was about to start disabling scripts one at a time to find out if one of them was causing it.

Toolbox is enabling auto-scroll behaviour. Normally, if you click & drag on the map, the map pans in the direction and by the amount you drag. With Toolbox enabled, the map now pans continuously in the direction you drag the mouse and at a speed proportional to the distance you drag.

So if you click & drag a few pixels to the right, the map will start panning slowly in that direction and keep doing so until you release the mouse button. If you drag the mouse half a screen to pan the map half a screen, it will race off in that direction at high speed and you'll be completely lost before you can let go of the button! :lol:

I don't know if this auto-scroll behaviour is intentional. Personally I've never got on with it. In my job I've probably set up 200-odd PCs in the last 10 years and disabled it on every one - and never had anyone complain. However, I accept that some people might want this behaviour and it could be a useful addition to Toolbox.

If it's deliberate, I suggest that it's off by default and there should be a user-accessible checkbox to turn it on/off.

Excellent - Map panning now working as normal! :D

It's not a bug and the script isn't changing the creator. As you've probably experienced in the past, you can't simply add a node to these loops - WME throws an error. The script simply takes the simpler route of deleting and re-drawing them. If you check segment IDs, you'll see they change.

There was a bug some time ago that caused the loops to be locked at your level. I was questioned as to why I had locked some residential loops at 6! :lol:

I can't speak with direct experience as to what the API allows - geniuses like the author of this script could answer definitively. However I have picked up a little about the way the scripts work and I like to think I know a bit about computing in general. ;)

I would be, frankly, amazed if the WME API allows you to change the creator. The API is there to allow WME to work - and creating segments under another editor identity is simply not something that WME does. If it was possible, the potential for mischief would be high. I have no doubt that creator is not an attribute that can be specified when creating a segment - it will be set by the server based on the logged in user asking for the segment to be created.

AFAIK the scripts only have access to objects and attributes that are available in the editor anyway. For example, note how average segment speed has recently become unavailable because it's been removed as an available segment attribute. In the same way, the scripts can only perform actions that can already be performed by editors. Although some scripts may seem to perform incredibly complex actions, they're just doing what computers are supposed to be good at doing - automating things that take too much time to do ourselves. :)
