Arabic runs the app right to left, but margins, paddings, insets, text
alignment, borders and corner radii were written for the left side, so
icons sat against the wrong edge of their labels, indents and badges
pointed the wrong way and amount columns aligned left. They now use the
logical forms (ms-, ps-, start-, text-start, marginInlineStart,
insetInlineEnd and their CSS equivalents), which are the very same sides
in a left to right language. Geometry stays physical on purpose: maps,
positions measured from the pointer or a bounding box, time axes,
sliders, transforms and print output.
Amounts drawn as several spans keep their order in a right to left row,
the time picker keeps hours before minutes, and two switches whose thumb
slid out of its track in Arabic now move the right way.
lint:rtl counts what is still physical per file against a baseline that
may only shrink (1512 uses in 370 files before, 319 in 113 now), and CI
runs it, so new code reaches for the logical forms.
A list could leave the instance as a TREK file, which only another TREK
reads. Export now asks for a format, and GPX is the second one: the
places as waypoints, for OsmAnd, Organic Maps, a Garmin or gpx.studio.
Import takes a GPX in the same dialog as a list file. Asked for in
discussion #2301.
The GPX is written from the very list file the JSON export returns, so
what may leave the instance is still decided in one place. Name,
description and address, notes, website and category go into GPX's own
elements, where every app shows them. Labels, status, phone and the
rest travel in a TREK extension namespace, so a GPX made by TREK comes
back as the same list. A place without coordinates cannot be a
waypoint; it is left out and the export says how many were.
A GPX is read on the server, sent as text, with the XML library the
trip importer already uses. A document with a DOCTYPE is refused before
parsing, which closes both external entities and entity expansion. Size
is capped like the list file, and the element count is capped before a
tree is built. The reader only turns the GPX into a list file: the
browser previews it and imports it through the existing route, so one
contract, one transaction and one skipped counter cover both formats.
Waypoints and named route points become places; tracks and unnamed
route points are counted in the preview and not imported.
The two list-file routes get a body ceiling of twice the file limit.
The global 100 kB cap refused most real favourites files, and it
already refused list files well under the megabyte the contract allows.
