Rewrite navigation guidance
Module responsible for navigation guidance has been rewritten. This
includes matching current location and direction of movement to the
route, generation of maneuver instructions, and tracking of the
progress. As user-visible changes, Pure Maps now shows distance to
route when away from it, keeps track on whether movement is along
the route or in opposite direction and requests rerouting in the
latter case. -
Navigation direction is preferred for orienting the map if moving
along the route. -
Switch off navigation mode on reaching destination
This is made to simplify orientation on reaching destination,
avoiding rerouting while searching for parking places. -
[kirigami,qtcontrols] Support inhibition of screensaver on
Freedesktop compliant environmentsPure Maps can now inhibit screensaver during navigation in such
Linux environments as Plasma Mobile and Phosh. Users of these
environments can now also setup their preferences under Device
section in Preferences. -
Support for external control by DBus
With an eye on connection to smart watches and voice commands, Pure
Maps allows now to start and stop navigation using DBus. Current
state of navigation is available as properties on DBus. API is
documented in README to simplify the development of such extensions. -
