cyclestreets / cyclescape-issuemap Goto Github PK

Currently, closing an open popup requires clicking on the top-right 'x'.

In addition, clicking on the geometry should be an implicit close.

I missed the date controls in the bottom-right. So I suggest changing this interface to something along the following lines:

• PerhapsHave the date-filtering controls as a third block of controls under the tags area
• Have a heading like 'Date:' or similar
• Set four checkboxes, one for each of the four legends
• Each legend would go next to its related checkbox
• By default include no Future deadline and No deadline

There is now a lag of ~ 4 secs on opening LCC's consultation map. This is mainly due to the large number of AJAX calls to the Cyclescape server (about 70 of them) to get the issues for TfL and each borough:
Possible actions:

• batch up the AJAX calls to the CyclesScape API
  ** E.g. could do this with a single call getting all the issues in Greater London, then sorting them on the client side.
  ** a solution where the server does most of the sorting work would be better (simpler and more responsive).
• Minify the scripts

JC: You pointed out previously that in the absence of any Threads, Issues would go direct from Live (future or no deadline) to Stale rather than Past. Maybe a minor change in the logic would be useful (i.e. if there are no Threads, use the Issue date).

Done.

At present, this appears to be a link that could take the user off-site. Accordingly, this may dissuade a user from clicking on it as they may assume that will lose their map position.

So I would use either:

• Some kind of checkbox, so that it's clear that this toggles a state in the existing interface
• A fold-down triangle type interface, that has a rotating triangle next to the heading, and when clicked folds down (or up) the panel.
• A free-floating button that toggles the panel on or off.

The parameters note should be moved into this repo as part of the README, and the existing webpage at
http://maps.camdencyclists.org.uk/issuemap/docs/parameters_note.html
redirected to the README.

That way, documentation can be updated in sync with changes to the code, as a combined commit.

Action @georgio8.

It would generate a URL with custom values for the parameters as defined at https://issuemap.cyclescape.org/docs/parameters_note.html

The front-to-back ordering of polygons still doesn't always prevent larger issues occluding smaller ones
