Description Moo 2017-10-13 15:25:45 UTC
In the Route Planner there is no tooltips on the person, bicycle and car buttons.
Maybe there should be tooltips such as "Travel by feet", "Travel by bycle", "Travel by car" or something.

Also there is no labels that describe what the input fields are for. Nor is there any tooltip for the input fields.

The "+" and "-" and the reverse route button have no tooltips.

The layer buttons where you chose map type have no tooltips for the different map types. Maybe should be "Satellite" or "Aerial" or something.

That bug only covers tooltips. However labels might be needed too.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2017-10-14 10:44:51 UTC
Feel free to file a dedicated task about labels. Tasks must cover only one specific problem (and only in addition a potential solution), see https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/Bugzilla/Guidelines
Comment 5 Moo 2017-10-14 10:56:27 UTC
Okay. Should I create a new one, or re-purpose this one and then you mark it as not duplicate?
Comment 6 André Klapper 2017-10-14 11:28:50 UTC
New, clean one preferred, which describes a problem.
