TravelMapping/Web

Tutorials/videos showing TM features

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Many parts of the TM web front end are not easy to find, especially for newer users. For example, it's not obvious where you can click on tables that bring up new pages. I bet many even experienced users couldn't easily get to the clinched/traveled pages (if they know of their existence). Ideally we would redesign the overall page layout so users could find things more easily. For the shorter term, it seems worth having a few tutorials, maybe videos, demonstrating some of the features.

Some possibilities:

  • How you can navigate to each of the pages (user page, mapview, top stats, stats/maps by region, stats/maps by system, clinched/traveled, etc.)
  • Tips for creating .list files, including the .list editor in showroute and taking advantage of connected routes and 6-field list entries to simplify multi-region routes.
