Description
Allow task manager to insert new waypoints anywhere in task, instead of always appending to end of task.
Hi,
I wonder what is the simplest way of inserting a waypoint while editing a task, assuming start and finish are already given. When in the 'Edit Task' window you have the option '(add waypoint)'. However, this option only allows you to append a waypoint to the task. This means that the settings for the finish point are lost and the finish point is transformed into the pre-last turning point. This is not very handy.
Of course you can go out of the 'Edit Task' window and back to the waypoint list or map window and insert from there, go back to task editing and save your task, but this is rather clumsy.
I thought it might be possible to move the '(add waypoint)' label in the 'Edit Task' window up and down by means of the up/down arrow, but this doesn't seem to work. It could be a useful feature if no other simple option exists to insert a waypoint in a task.
