Items to be fixed:

Main view

  • initial view is weird angle
  • need to implement escape key to reset view
  • No splash screen / loading interface
  • full-screening doesn't change the size of the GUI or the display; display should become larger
  • Ability to take snapshots?
  • Save as hangs for awhile, not sure if it does anything
  • Zoom used to be position-dependent; it would slow down near the surface. Bring back?
  • Is there a reason political boundaries, graticule, drawing tools aren't plugins?
  • bar at bottom of 3D view was helpful for displaying information on what you clicked on, should be brought back or alternative mechanism implemented

Political Boundaries

Graticule

  • No compass appears

Drawing Tools

  • Gradient options aren't applied to visuals

Faults

  • No checkbox for items in list
  • Changing the wiremesh mode doesn't have an impact
  • Clicking on the color box in the list doesn't do anything
  • "Filter through ROIs" doesn't do anything

Surface Plugin

  • None of the presets work
  • Nothing happens when I try to load a surface from disk (no Open dialog)
  • Downloading image/DEM from web services works but displays incorrectly. Image seems to wrap around the back at zero altitude with many artifacts
