Description Jonas Danielsson 2016-02-29 08:42:13 UTC 
It is possible to drag and drop the entries in route search to re-order the route. This is a nice feature. It is also our only way to sort of switch around from/and to.

The problem is that this is hard to discover. It is initiated by dragging the icons next to the route entries. See video.

Is there a way of making this more discoverable?

I think we could add tooltips to the icon to let the user know that he can drag and drop those entries.
Comment 3 Andreas Nilsson 2016-02-29 10:53:40 UTC 
The tooltip could say "Drag to change order of the route points"
Comment 4 Andreas Nilsson 2016-02-29 10:55:12 UTC 
or "Change point order by drag and drop"
