I’ve changed the way the flash canvas interface works for adding places. It’s an improvement, I think, but now that it’s done still not quite right. Now when you press the marker mode button found currently down the bottom right of the canvas the select area appears immediately and upto 20 places saved in the viewable area (before the currently selected canvas date) appear. This allows you to see if the place you planned to save has already been saved, in which case there is no need to save it yourself. It has aside-effect of you being able to move back through the history of the local area.

Now that it’s complete I think that It should show markers both before and after the current canvas time. And perhaps markers should be indicated by a icon symbol only on rolling over any of them they should unfold to show thumbnails & the select area should fade out.
