+Zero CooL NL Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hi i've got an remark regarding the Travelbug listing, you know the listing you see when clicking on your TB. The thing is, i see the distance's of my TB's in miles, wouldn't be possible to create a thingy so the distance can also be shown in kilometers? As i said a remark regarding the miles, but wow.. it would be very nice if it could also be in kilometers. Kind regards, Zero CooL NL Link to comment
+Lean Wolf Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I second that. I've selected metric units in my profile, but it doesn't work on TB distances. Link to comment
+Divine Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 It's been asked here a number of times. I bet it's on the ToDo list. Link to comment
+Zero CooL NL Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 It's been asked here a number of times. I bet it's on the ToDo list. Hi Divine, I saw the thread where you mentioned the same thing I really hope it wil be added soon. There isn't a public to-do list? So we could see what al the future plans are? Or what kind of things are already asked? Kind regards, Zero CooL NL Link to comment
+Divine Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 There isn't a public to-do list? So we could see what al thefuture plans are? Or what kind of things are already asked? No, there's not a public ToDo-list. (I wouldn't publish one either. ) The only way to find out what kind of things are already asked, is doing a forum-search, I'm afraid. It's good, however, to bring up forgotten (?) requests every now and then, whether by posting in an existing thread, or by starting a new one. Link to comment
+BigFurryMonster Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I also requested this feature. It seems quite straightforward to implement ("IF preference = metric THEN use KM else use Miles"), but I know it may be harder (complexer and/or more embedded) to do so. Link to comment
+Divine Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 It seems quite straightforward to implement It probably is, it already works fine on the cache pages. My guess there are just more urgent priorities delaying this simple feature enhancement. Patience! Link to comment
+Lean Wolf Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I'm patient. Will it help? Link to comment
+ibycus Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Doubt it. I agree though, kilometres is how I think, not miles... Link to comment

+sTeamTraen Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Another cool international feature would be for the date listing on the cache pages to follow the reader's home country customs. Or better still, let us choose the date format we want. mm/dd/yyyy is just plain confusing to 3/4 of the planet, which uses mostly dd/mm/yyyy. Personally I would go for ISO, yyyy-mm-dd, the only format where you can sort dates as text (among many other advantages). Link to comment
btrodrigues Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 I know this topic reverts to waaaay back in time, but I find annoying that (even with the units on my preferences defined as Metric) I see the travel bugs travelled distance in miles. Judging by the comments here, I also second the opinion that the date should be printed as ISO... yyyy/mm/dd... does anybody read this stuff? Link to comment
+BigFurryMonster Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 I read it and I agree! The real question is: does anybody with the power to change it, read this stuff? Link to comment
+PeterNoG Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Regardless of my profile setting, as long I have kilometers set for cache distance, then my TBs are in kms. Link to comment
Remote Part Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Regardless of my profile setting, as long I have kilometers set for cache distance, then my TBs are in kms. Yes, that page is in kilometres or miles depending on your profile, but if you go onto an individual travelbug page, its always in miles. eg go onto a travelbug page, then it has the line: Travel Bug History (250mi) View Mapeven if you have your profile set to km.
