GOTO button with clear task

Reported by: ziarko Owned by: RobD
Priority: normal Milestone: XCSoar Wishlist
Component: Waypoints Version: 6.0a
Keywords: Cc: ziarko@…

Description (last modified by RobD) (diff)

Dear Developers,
could you add additional "Goto + clear task" button in the Waypoint screen as on attached mockup?

  • The current GOTO button - only cancell task and do temporary goto. The task can be however resummed.
  • New "GOTO + clear task" would clear current task and create a new one with the Waypoint.

SEE #996 for reopen notes

Why would this ever be required?

Replying to jwharington:

Why would this ever be required?

John, it was in 5.2.4 and worked well. Say you fly task, something changed, you like to fly something different. What I usually did in 5.2.4 - I have chosen new waypoint and just pressed "Clear task & goto". Later I maybe appended something to task and could do all task related activities.
In 6.0 this does not work, after GOTO, I have the task just suspended that might be good in certain conditions but I like to have option to start new task.
Does this make sense?

I would suggest the following:

The current behavior stays but when you click on Task Edit in the menu and GoTo? mode is currently activated the task editor will ask you if you want to convert your current GoTo? point to a task...
