map::track::entry(3tk)

💖 map::track::entry — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is a page from the 3tk manual — that's the Tcl/Tk man section, and the whole family it lives in is Map display support. Buckle up, we're doing track entry 🗺️✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

map::track::entry — Map Action Engine - Track Entry. that's it, that's the whole name. iconic of it honestly 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

first things first, you gotta have your requirements handled. lowkey this is the group chat invite list before the party starts:

package require Tcl 8.6-

package require canvas::edit::polyline

package require debug

package require debug::caller

package require snit

package require map::slippy 0.8

package require map::track::entry ?0.1?

so yeah: Tcl version 8.6- (that trailing dash means 8.6 or newer, no cap), plus canvas::edit::polyline, debug, debug::caller, snit, map::slippy at 0.8, and then the star of the show, map::track::entry at ?0.1? — the question marks mean that version is optional, so if you've got it, slay, and if not, it'll take whatever it can get 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the vibe. this package gives you a map::display attachment that extends the map's behaviour. and what does that attachment do?? it lets the user enter an open series of points, which is to say... a geo/track. 🦋

that's it. that's the whole point of it. you draw a track, the track is a line of points, the points are open (not a closed loop, bestie, we're not doing polygons here). main character energy fr fr 🔥

---

💅 API 💅

no options, no flags, no arguments listed here. this section is a whole mood — it's giving blank canvas. (literally, considering canvas::edit::polyline is in the deps 😭)

---

✨ EXAMPLE ✨

also empty. not me showing up to the API docs with nothing to show you 🙈 we move.

---

💀 BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK 💀

okay real talk, and I need you to hear me on this one: this document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. that's the official word, not me being shady. 😭

so if you find one — or if you just have ideas, because enhancements are welcome too — please report it in the category map of the Tklib Trackers:

http://core.tcl.tk/tklib/reportlist

and yes, they want your ideas for enhancements for either the package and/or the documentation. so if the docs are the problem, say that too. no gatekeeping 🫶
