==Frequently asked questions about Marble==

===Maps===

====The labels and features on the OpenStreetMap map theme look blurry! How can I fix this?====

Marble uses the same bitmap data that is used by the OpenStreetMap webpage. In order to display it on a globe with a seamless panning and zooming experience the bitmaps need to be stretched and skewed in order to fit the projection and the magnification.

There are two way to avoid this:
* Use the Mercator projection and zoom in via the "+" keystroke and zoom out via the "-" keystroke. This will only choose zoom levels where the text appears sharp.
* Advanced users can try our experimental life vector rendering support: Load an .osm file that contains your area of interest and you'll have sharp rendering no matter what you do.

For more information on this issue have a look at the associated [https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199259 Bug 199259].

====I'd like to use the maps created with Marble for my website (or other purposes). Is this allowed?====

Yes, as long as you give proper credits:

Marble usually uses several different sources of data to compile the map. We use only data which is "free" as in "Free Software" (which means that it's free as in "speech" not as in "beer").
Often we are using data from NASA or the CIA which is placed under the public domain according to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_Information_Act_(United_States)

We also use data that is licensed under other free licenses which are in accordance with the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG). This usually means that there are basically no "strings" attached to the data except for proper attribution.
To find out about the actual licenses of the data you can have a look at the credits section for the data in Marble's About dialog.

In case you are using OpenStreetMap in Marble it's important that you add a line to your publication which gives credit to the OpenStreetMap Project. Please have a look at the [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Legal_FAQ#I_would_like_to_use_OpenStreetMap_maps._How_should_I_credit_you.3F OpenStreetMap Legal FAQ] for more information!

====I think I've found a bug in the map data. How do I report it?====

This depends on which map you are using in Marble. If the bug is not in the OpenStreetMap map then you should report it to

http://bugs.kde.org.

If the bug occurs for OpenStreetMap then there are two options:

1.) Please consider getting involved with the OpenStreetMap Project. This has the advantage that you can fix the bug yourself:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Getting_Involved

2.) If you don't feel like fixing it yourself but if you just want to report it then OpenStreetBugs might be what you're looking for.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetBugs

====There is a bug in the clouds layer: Parts of it looks hazy. Can you do something about it??====

The bug is in the data, so sorry at this point we cannot do anything about it. It doesn't always happen but it's quite often that the clouds don't "fit" on the lower eastern south.

===Application===

==== Is there a version of Marble for Android / Symbian? ====

Not at the moment. Technically it shouldn't be a big problem to adapt the code. However we need somebody to maintain the package.

====I can't get the proxy to work. Doesn't Marble support proxies?====
Marble prepended the proxy domain with "http://" in earlier versions. This was done in error. Instead of "http://foo.mycompany.com" please enter "foo.mycompany.com/foo" instead.

==== The coordinates look odd. I want decimal coordinates! ====
You can toggle between DMS (degree minute seconds) and decimal notation in the View preferences in Marble's settings.

Earthwings: /* Implement fast adding of measurement points by ctrl+click */

If you are new to Marble then you want to check this page. We list a few things you can do which are easy tasks and introduce you to Marble development.
You can possible find some Junior Jobs at [https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=marble&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=junior-jobs&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0= KDE's Bugzilla].

== Marble Marketing Junior Jobs ==
Check

[http://www.google.de/search?as_q=Marble+KDE&hl=de&num=100&btnG=Google-Suche&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&cr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=d&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=images "Marble KDE"] results of the last 24 hours

for interesting news items related to Marble. Then post these news to our Marble [http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=346064806033 "Marble Facebook group"]. In the next step update our [http://edu.kde.org/marble "Marble Website"] accordingly.

== Quality Assurance / Documentation ==
We want our Marble source code to look good. The documentation should be concise and helpful and the comments shouldn't have spelling errors. Also it shouldn't have any obvious "formal" bugs. Help us to improve our code quality. This is an easy job that helps you to get familiar with the source code. It's the first thing that absolute beginners usually want to look at. We list a few important issues that need to be checked for regularly:

* Try to find spelling errors in the source code comments and in Marble UI strings. (EASY)
* KDE Krazy check: Have a look at the results of the static code checker: http://www.englishbreakfastnetwork.org/krazy/reports/kde-4.x/kdeedu/marble/index.html. Try to understand possible problems and create a fix for them. (EASY/MEDIUM)
* Get rid of compile warnings: Compile Marble from scratch and check all the warnings that possibly appear. Try to get rid of the warnings by adding fixes. If parameters are not used, examine why and either remove them or hide the warning or leave it as it is. (EASY-MEDIUM)
* Compile marble with the cmake option -DPEDANTIC=ON. Fix all errors that come up until Marble compiles through (MEDIUM).
* Add comments. You don't understand some source code in Marble? Then probably other people won't either. Try to understand it and ask Marble developers. The add some comments so that the next person will be able to understand the source code much easier (MEDIUM).
* Create API-Documentation (EASY).
* Review the API. Make sure that the API is Qt-ish (MEDIUM). Read http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/pages/ApiDesignPrinciples and read the Marble source code. Try to find cases which seem to be non-standard. (MEDIUM)
* Read our Marble Coding Standards: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdeedu/marble/CODING?revision=700337&view=markup. Ensure that the Marble source code follows it (EASY).
* Help to translate Marble into your own language. Try to find "weird" translations or translations that don't express things in words that a normal user would understand and correct/report them (MEDIUM).

* Check KDE's Bugzilla for any open Marble bugs: https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=Marble. Try to reproduce the bugs and check whether the bugs are still valid. Remove them if they're not valid anymore and seem to be fixed already (EASY). Try to fix them if they are still valid (MEDIUM/HARD).

If you come across a problem don't hesitate to ask us (there are no stupid questions, just people who are afraid of asking for stupid reasons ;-)
If you want to send in your patch for review, please send it to our mailing list marble-devel@kde.org.

== Programmer Junior Jobs ==
This section deals with junior jobs that require basic C++ skills:

===Let the "Open ..." file dialog remember the previously used directory===

Marble should remember the previous directory used for the Open ... file dialog. This feature needs to be implemented for the KDE and Qt version of Marble.

Level of difficulty: EASY

===Create an "Open Recent ..." menu entry===
In marble/src/KdeMainWindow.cpp use

http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/classKRecentFilesAction.html

to create an open recent menu entry for the KDE version of Marble.
Adding the same functionality to the Qt version of Marble is a bonus task.

Level of difficulty: EASY

=== Update the country information to 2010 ===
Marble is using the CIA World Factbook for displaying country information.
Have a look at the python script

marble/data/ciasource/cia2kml.py

and use it to compile the latest information from the latest version of the Factbook:

https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/

Once done you need to do some extensive testing to see whether the information got properly applied.

Level of difficulty: EASY

=== Implement fast adding of measurement points by ctrl+click ===
See [https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232098 Bug 232098] for more information.

Level of difficulty: MEDIUM

=== More Intelligent Time Range Selection for the Earthquake Plugin ===
See [https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300184 Bug 300184] for more information.

Level of difficulty: EASY

=== Download Progress Bar for Marble Qt ===
The KDE version of Marble has a nice progress bar in the statusbar that shows the progress of tile downloading. Users of Qt Marble don't see any progress indication. Please change that: Have a look at MarblePart::setupDownloadProgressBar() in marble_part.cpp (part of the implementation in the KDE version) and integrate a similar progress bar feature in QtMainWindow.cpp, the Qt version of Marble. The feature can be tested using View => Redisplay for example, which triggers a re-download of tiles on the screen.

Earthwings: /* Marble (Touch) */

Marble Touch supports both the Qt Components for Meego and the Plasma Components (for touch). This article describes how to setup and run <tt>marble-touch</tt> for Plasma Active (using plasma components in the touch platform variant).

=== Overview ===
We'll briefly cover the prerequisites needed -- an installation of Qt 4.7 or later, an installation of the plasma components from KDE 4.9 or later and the setup of environment variables -- and the compilation of Marble. At the time of writing KDE 4.9 was not released yet, so we'll perform a local installation of kdelibs and kde-runtime which in turns brings you the required version of plasma components.

=== Qt and other System Libraries ===
Make sure to have a development version of Qt 4.7 or later installed. Qt Declarative support must be there. Marble Touch also requires (at runtime) the following declarative extensions of Qt or Qt related packages that you may have to install separately: QtMobility systeminfo, QtWebKit, Qt labs folderlistmodel.

On a Debianish system, install the following packages:

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">sudo aptitude install libqt4-dev libqtwebkit-qmlwebkitplugin libdeclarative-systeminfo libqt4-declarative-folderlistmodel</syntaxhighlight>

=== KDE Libraries and Runtime ===
Skip this section if KDE 4.9 is installed on your system.

Please refer to the KDE development articles for details. In short, clone both kdelibs and kde-runtime
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdelibs.git
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kde-runtime</syntaxhighlight>
and install them using the same <tt>CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX</tt>. Let's assume this is <tt>/home/me/kde49</tt>. Check your installation by verifying that <tt>lib/kde4/imports/org/kde/plasma/components/qmldir</tt> exists in <tt>/home/me/kde49</tt>.

Now setup your environment as follows:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/home/me/kde49/lib
export QML_IMPORT_PATH=${QML_IMPORT_PATH}:/home/me/kde49/lib/kde4/imports
export KDE_PLASMA_COMPONENTS_PLATFORM=touch
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Marble (Touch) ===
Like before I'll keep the description brief and ask you to refer to other articles for details.

Get a recent copy of Marble from git master. Note that when setting it up for compilation you can compile either the KDE or the Qt only version. There'll be no difference; in doubt choose the <tt>-DQTONLY=TRUE</tt> variant.

There's one important step now: Execute the script <tt>switch.bash</tt> to toggle between MeeGo and Plasma Components. Since MeeGo are default, you have to execute it once. When you do changes to the code which you plan to commit, switch back to MeeGo before committing them. With that in mind, switch to Plasma Components now:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">tools/qt-components/switch.bash plasma</syntaxhighlight>

You can check what the script did using <tt>git diff</tt>. If you want to go back, just execute <tt>tools/qt-components/switch.bash meego</tt>.

If you compile Marble now and install it to a local directory (let's say <tt>/home/me/marble</tt>, you need to alter your environment further:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/home/me/marble/lib
export QML_IMPORT_PATH=${QML_IMPORT_PATH}:/home/me/marble/lib/marble/plugins
</syntaxhighlight>

Finally you can start <tt>/home/me/marble/bin/marble-touch</tt>.

It's easy to forget one or the other dependency or setup the environment in the wrong way, leading to <tt>marble-touch</tt> refusing to start. Here's a checklist:
* Install the declarative packages mentioned in the sections above
* Setup the <tt>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</tt> variable to include (colon separated) the KDE <tt>lib/</tt> directory and Marble's <tt>lib/</tt> directory.
* Setup the <tt>QML_IMPORT_PATH</tt> variable to include (colon separated) the KDE <tt>lib/kde4/imports</tt> directory and Marble's <tt>lib/marble/plugins</tt> directory.

{{Tip|Set the <tt>QML_IMPORT_TRACE</tt> environment variable to <tt>1</tt> as a handy tool to debug qml import path issues:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">export QML_IMPORT_TRACE=1</syntaxhighlight>
}} 

When running marble-touch in a normal window, some things behave different compared to their behavior on a touch device with limited resolution. For example, menus can popup outside the window and sheets and dialogs can be larger than the window itself. To emulate a touch device display, it's useful to run marble-touch inside of Xephyr. Install it and execute
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
Xephyr -screen 800x480 :1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
</syntaxhighlight>
once in a shell. A new, empty window will open, which represents its own xserver where you can run programs in. Setting the environment variable <tt>DISPLAY</tt> to <tt>:1</tt> in this shell results in all programs started from this shell being opened in the Xephyr window. When you execute marble-touch now, it is started inside the Xephyr window, emulating a screen with a resolution of 800x480 pixel. Menus, dialogs and sheets behave more realistic now.

Earthwings: /* Marble (Touch) */

Marble Touch supports both the Qt Components for Meego and the Plasma Components (for touch). This article describes how to setup and run <tt>marble-touch</tt> for Plasma Active (using plasma components in the touch platform variant).

=== Overview ===
We'll briefly cover the prerequisites needed -- an installation of Qt 4.7 or later, an installation of the plasma components from KDE 4.9 or later and the setup of environment variables -- and the compilation of Marble. At the time of writing KDE 4.9 was not released yet, so we'll perform a local installation of kdelibs and kde-runtime which in turns brings you the required version of plasma components.

=== Qt and other System Libraries ===
Make sure to have a development version of Qt 4.7 or later installed. Qt Declarative support must be there. Marble Touch also requires (at runtime) the following declarative extensions of Qt or Qt related packages that you may have to install separately: QtMobility systeminfo, QtWebKit, Qt labs folderlistmodel.

On a Debianish system, install the following packages:

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">sudo aptitude install libqt4-dev libqtwebkit-qmlwebkitplugin libdeclarative-systeminfo libqt4-declarative-folderlistmodel</syntaxhighlight>

=== KDE Libraries and Runtime ===
Skip this section if KDE 4.9 is installed on your system.

Please refer to the KDE development articles for details. In short, clone both kdelibs and kde-runtime
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdelibs.git
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kde-runtime</syntaxhighlight>
and install them using the same <tt>CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX</tt>. Let's assume this is <tt>/home/me/kde49</tt>. Check your installation by verifying that <tt>lib/kde4/imports/org/kde/plasma/components/qmldir</tt> exists in <tt>/home/me/kde49</tt>.

Now setup your environment as follows:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/home/me/kde49/lib
export QML_IMPORT_PATH=${QML_IMPORT_PATH}:/home/me/kde49/lib/kde4/imports
export KDE_PLASMA_COMPONENTS_PLATFORM=touch
</syntaxhighlight>

Earthwings: /* TODO List */

Developed by Daniel Marth during Google Summer of Code 2011. User interface ideas (under development): On startup a "home screen" is shown that lines up a couple of possible activities. Each activity is represented by its name and an icon, aligned in a grid. Selecting any activity brings the user to the main screen. The main screen adjusts itself to the chosen activity and provides a way to go back to the home screen and related activities. Most activities display a map (MarbleWidget) as the main widget, but that's not always the case (e.g. during configuration).

== Activities ==
Planned activities are as follows:
* Virtual Globe
** Activates spherical projection, a satellite map.
** Easy way to switch to other map themes.
** Easy way to enable wikipedia and photo plugin.
** Distance measuring should be possible.
* Routing

== Reverse geocoding ==
Marble uses so-called runners to calculate routes, do reverse geocoding, parse files and search for placemarks (cities, addresses, points of interest, ...). This tutorial shows how to use the <tt>MarbleRunnerManager</tt> class to get a textual description of a given coordinate.

<source lang="cpp-qt">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <QtCore/QDebug>

#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>
#include <marble/MarbleModel.h>
#include <marble/MarbleRunnerManager.h>
#include <marble/GeoDataPlacemark.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);
MarbleModel *model = new MarbleModel;

MarbleRunnerManager* manager = new MarbleRunnerManager( model->pluginManager() );
manager->setModel( model );

GeoDataCoordinates position( -0.15845, 51.52380, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree );
qDebug() << position.toString() << "is" << manager->searchReverseGeocoding( position );
}
</source>

Copy and paste the code above into a text editor. Then save it as <tt>my_marble.cpp</tt> and compile it by entering the following command on the command line:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o my_marble my_marble.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui -lQtCore
</source>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./my_marble</tt> and the output looks similar to this:
<source lang="text">
" 0° 09' 30.4"W, 51° 31' 25.7"N" is "Sherlock Holmes Museum, "221b", Baker Street, Marylebone, City of Westminster, Greater London, England, NW1 6AX, United Kingdom"
</source>

{{tip|
Here's a little checklist to tackle some problems that might arise when compiling the code above:

* You need Qt and '''Marble development packages''' (or comparable git installations), version 1.3 (Marble library 0.13), shipped post KDE 4.8
* If ''Qt headers'' are not installed in '''/usr/include/qt4''' on your system, change the path in the g++ call above accordingly.
* Likewise, '''add -I /path/to/marble/headers''' if they're not to be found in /usr/include

== Basic Routing ==
The Marble library 0.13 and later (KDE 4.8, Marble 1.3) has an API to calculate and manage routes. Let's start with a brief overview of the important classes and their interaction. The class <tt>RouteRequest</tt> holds parameters that are constraints for the route to be calculated: Start and destination, optional via points and further parameters (e.g. transport type). The <tt>RoutingManager</tt> passes such a request to backends (routing plugins) that calculate possible routes from it. The best route is chosen and displayed in a special layer in the <tt>MarbleWidget</tt>. Additionally you can access the route data via the <tt>RoutingModel</tt>. This model can be passed directly to e.g. a QListView to show the turn instructions, but also exposes further data like the waypoints of the route via the <tt>Route</tt> class. This one consists of a set of <tt>RouteSegment</tt> instances, each representing a number of waypoints and an optional turn instruction (<tt>Maneuver</tt>) at the end.

<source lang="cpp-qt">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>
#include <marble/MarbleModel.h>
#include <marble/RouteRequest.h>
#include <marble/RoutingManager.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);

// Create a Marble QWidget without a parent
MarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MarbleWidget();

// Load the OpenStreetMap map
mapWidget->setMapThemeId( "earth/openstreetmap/openstreetmap.dgml" );
mapWidget->setProjection( Mercator );

// Access the shared route request (start, destination and parameters)
RoutingManager* manager = mapWidget->model()->routingManager();
RouteRequest* request = manager->routeRequest();

// Use default routing settings for cars
request->setRoutingProfile( manager->defaultProfile( RoutingProfile::Motorcar ) );

// Set start and destination
request->append( GeoDataCoordinates( 8.38942, 48.99738, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree ) );
request->append( GeoDataCoordinates( 8.42002, 49.0058, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree ) );

// Calculate the route
manager->retrieveRoute();

// Center the map on the route start point and show it
mapWidget->centerOn( request->at( 0 ) );
mapWidget->setDistance( 0.75 );
mapWidget->show();

return app.exec();

Copy and paste the code above into a text editor. Then save it as <tt>my_marble.cpp</tt> and compile it by entering the following command on the command line:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o my_marble my_marble.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui -lQtCore
</source>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./my_marble</tt> and you end up with a fully usable OpenStreetMap application:

Here's a little checklist to tackle some problems that might arise when compiling the code above:

* You need Qt and '''Marble development packages''' (or comparable git installations), version 1.3 (Marble library 0.13), shipped e.g. with KDE 4.8
* If ''Qt headers'' are not installed in '''/usr/include/qt4''' on your system, change the path in the g++ call above accordingly.
* Likewise, '''add -I /path/to/marble/headers''' if they're not to be found in /usr/include
}}
{{note|
If you provide maps in your application please check the '''Terms of Use''' of the map material. The map material that is shipped with Marble is licensed ''in the spirit of Free Software''. This usually means at least that the authors should be credited and that the license is mentioned.
E.g. for ''OpenStreetMap'' the license is [http://creativecommons.org/license/by-sa/2.0 CC-BY-SA]. Other map data shipped with Marble is either public domain or licensed in the spirit of the BSD license.

== Basic Routing ==
The Marble library 0.13 and later (KDE 4.8, Marble 1.3) has an API to calculate and manage routes. Let's start with a brief overview of the important classes and their interaction. The class <tt>RouteRequest</tt> holds parameters that are constraints for the route to be calculated: Start and destination, optional via points and further parameters (e.g. transport type). The <tt>RoutingManager</tt> passes such a request to backends (routing plugins) that calculate possible routes from it. The best route is chosen and displayed in a special layer in the <tt>MarbleWidget</tt>. Additionally you can access the route data via the <tt>RoutingModel</tt>. This model can be passed directly to e.g. a QListView to show the turn instructions, but also exposes further data like the waypoints of the route via the <tt>Route</tt> class. This one consists of a set of <tt>RouteSegment</tt> instances, each representing a number of waypoints and an optional turn instruction (<tt>Maneuver</tt>) at the end.

<source lang="cpp-qt">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>
#include <marble/MarbleModel.h>
#include <marble/RouteRequest.h>
#include <marble/RoutingManager.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);

// Create a Marble QWidget without a parent
MarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MarbleWidget();

// Load the OpenStreetMap map
mapWidget->setMapThemeId( "earth/openstreetmap/openstreetmap.dgml" );
mapWidget->setProjection( Mercator );

// Access the shared route request (start, destination and parameters)
RoutingManager* manager = mapWidget->model()->routingManager();
RouteRequest* request = manager->routeRequest();

// Use default routing settings for cars
request->setRoutingProfile( manager->defaultProfile( RoutingProfile::Motorcar ) );

// Set start and destination
request->append( GeoDataCoordinates( 8.38942, 48.99738, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree ) );
request->append( GeoDataCoordinates( 8.42002, 49.0058, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree ) );

// Calculate the route
manager->retrieveRoute();

// Center the map on the route start point and show it
mapWidget->centerOn( request->at( 0 ) );
mapWidget->setDistance( 0.75 );
mapWidget->show();

return app.exec();
}

== Device form factors ==
* Desktop: The classical desktop computer system
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartphone Smartphone]
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laptop Notebook]
* Tablet: Devices with about 7"-10" touchscreens and additional sensors (GPS, accelerometers)
* TV: Set top boxes using a TV as display, often full-HD resolution
* Vehicle: In-vehicle infotainment and "carputers" fixed to a vehicle. But not smartphones or tablets used in a vehicle for just a short period of time!
* Plane: In-flight entertainment systems

== Use Cases ==

=== Exploration ===
The user starts the Marble application to find out more about a certain region or city that interests him/her or just to explore the world. In this digital world atlas mode the spherical projection is mostly useful.

Main features include:
* spherical projection
* coordinate grid
* overview map themes
* country/city search
* animated movement (jump to target)
* wikipedia integration
* bookmarks

Developed by Daniel Marth during Google Summer of Code 2011. User interface ideas (under development): On startup a "home screen" is shown that lines up a couple of possible activities. Each activity is represented by its name and an icon, aligned in a grid. Selecting any activity brings the user to the main screen. The main screen adjusts itself to the chosen activity and provides a way to go back to the home screen and related activities. Most activities display a map (MarbleWidget) as the main widget, but that's not always the case (e.g. during configuration).

Planned activities are as follows:
* Virtual Globe
** Activates spherical projection, a satellite map.
** Easy way to switch to other map themes.
** Easy way to enable wikipedia and photo plugin.
** Distance measuring should be possible.
* Drive
** Motorcar route planning

series=Marble C++ Tutorial|

name=Hello Marble|

pre=[http://mindview.net/Books/TICPP/ThinkingInCPP2e.html C++], [http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/ Qt]|

next=[[Projects/Marble/MarbleMarbleWidget|Tutorial 2 - MarbleWidget: Changing basic map properties]]|
}}

== Hello Marble! ==
The API of the Marble library allows for a very easy integration of a '''map widget''' into your application.

Let's prove that with a tiny '''Hello world'''-like example: Qt beginners might want to have a look at the [http://doc.trolltech.com/widgets-tutorial.html Qt Widgets Tutorial] to learn more about the details of the code. But this is probably not necessary. For a start we just create a [http://doc.trolltech.com/qapplication.html QApplication] object and a [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html MarbleWidget] object which serves as a window.
By default the MarbleWidget uses the ''Atlas'' map theme. However for our first example we choose to display streets. So we set the maptheme id to
[http://www.openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap]. Then we call [http://doc.trolltech.com/qwidget.html#show QWidget::show()] to show the map widget and we call [http://doc.trolltech.com/qapplication.html#exec QApplication::exec()] to start the application's event loop. That's all!

<source lang="cpp-qt">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);

// Create a Marble QWidget without a parent
MarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MarbleWidget();

// Load the OpenStreetMap map
mapWidget->setMapThemeId("earth/openstreetmap/openstreetmap.dgml");

mapWidget->show();

return app.exec();
}
</source>

Copy and paste the code above into a text editor. Then save it as <tt>my_marble.cpp</tt> and compile it by entering the following command on the command line:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o my_marble my_marble.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui
</source>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./my_marble</tt> and you end up with a fully usable OpenStreetMap application:

[[Image:My_hello.png]]

{{tip|
Here's a little checklist to tackle some problems that might arise when compiling the code above:

* You need Qt and '''Marble development packages''' (or comparable git installations)
* If ''Qt headers'' are not installed in '''/usr/include/qt4''' on your system, change the path in the g++ call above accordingly.
* Likewise, '''add -I /path/to/marble/headers''' if they're not to be found in /usr/include
}}
{{note|
If you provide maps in your application please check the '''Terms of Use''' of the map material. The map material that is shipped with Marble is licensed ''in the spirit of Free Software''. This usually means at least that the authors should be credited and that the license is mentioned.
E.g. for ''OpenStreetMap'' the license is [http://creativecommons.org/license/by-sa/2.0 CC-BY-SA]. Other map data shipped with Marble is either public domain or licensed in the spirit of the BSD license.

== Creating a weather map ==
We'd like to display a small weather map. So we need to modify the map. And we need to turn on the satellite view, enable the clouds and enable the country border lines.

Again [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html MarbleWidget] provides a convenient way to make these changes to the overall look and feel of the map.

By default Marble shows a few info boxes: '''Overview Map''', '''Compass''' and '''ScaleBar'''. But the size for the widget is very limited. Therefore we want to shrink the compass. And we want to get rid of all the clutter, so we turn off the Overview Map and the ScaleBar. In the source code the class [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1AbstractFloatItem.html AbstractFloatItem] is used to display all kinds of '''Info Boxes'''. All the Info Boxes are derived from the AbstractFloatItem class. Now we get a list of all the float items that are known to MarbleWidget and we go through it. Once we reach the float item which has got the name id "compass" we make all the changes we want to it (this has been simplified in Marble 0.11.0 where you can access AbstractFloatItems directly via their nameId):

<source lang="cpp-qt">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>

#include <marble/global.h>
#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>
#include <marble/AbstractFloatItem.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);

// Create a Marble QWidget without a parent
MarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MarbleWidget();

// Load the OpenStreetMap map
mapWidget->setMapThemeId("earth/bluemarble/bluemarble.dgml");

mapWidget->setProjection( Mercator );

// Enable the cloud cover and enable the country borders
mapWidget->setShowClouds( true );
mapWidget->setShowBorders( true );

// Hide the FloatItems: Compass and StatusBar
mapWidget->setShowOverviewMap(false);
mapWidget->setShowScaleBar(false);

foreach ( AbstractFloatItem * floatItem, mapWidget->floatItems() )
if ( floatItem && floatItem->nameId() == "compass" ) {

// Put the compass onto the left hand side
floatItem->setPosition( QPoint( 10, 10 ) );
// Make the content size of the compass smaller
floatItem->setContentSize( QSize( 50, 50 ) );
}

mapWidget->resize( 400, 300 );
mapWidget->show();

return app.exec();
}
</source>

Save the code above as <tt>marble_weather.cpp</tt> and compile it:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o marble_weather marble_weather.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui
</source>

Instead of calling the compiler directly you can also create a [http://doc.trolltech.com/qmake-tutorial.html qmake project file]:

<code>
TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = marble_weather
DEPENDPATH += .
INCLUDEPATH += .
SOURCES += marble_weather.cpp
LIBS += -lmarblewidget
</code>

Store it as <tt>marble_weather.pro</tt> in the same directory and call

<code>
qmake marble_weather.pro
make
</code>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./marble_weather</tt> and you end up with a map application that displays clouds on top of a flat map:

== Creating a window with controls ==
We'd like to add other widgets to our Marble window: A '''zoom slider''' and a '''label''' that shows the current mouse position in '''geodetic''' coordinates: ''longitude'' and ''latitude''.

In order to achieve this we need to create a vertical layout. Once we are done we add the slider and the label that we created to the layout. Also we zoom the globe to the slider's default value using the [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html#d49d8ab0be0721c579bb511bdda45829 MarbleWidget::zoomView(int)] method.

We want to center our globe onto South America. So we create a new [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1GeoDataCoordinates.html GeoDataCoordinates] object that takes the longitude and the latitude as a parameter and we call [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html#7cda9942ead26d60c89a7b54a073a2fd MarbleWidget::centerOn].

As you might have realized already GeoDataCoordinates is the geodetic "sister" of [http://doc.trolltech.com/qapplication.html QPoint]. They share a very similar API. Additionally GeoDataCoordinates features a nice set of string conversion methods ([http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1GeoDataCoordinates.html#ce27e6f714e21be067995c2cf96544d6 GeoDataCoordinates::fromString()], [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1GeoDataCoordinates.html#558b72384563190dc2ce119a1f75de86 GeoDataCoordinates::lonToString()] and [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1GeoDataCoordinates.html#558b72384563190dc2ce119a1f75de86 GeoDataCoordinates::latToString()]). They are used in various places inside Marble such as the signal [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html#0869df8f4666014aff93d9ba1c130bc3 MarbleWidget::mouseMoveGeoPosition(const QString&) ].

Finally we connect the [http://doc.trolltech.com/signalsandslots.html signals and slots] that MarbleWidget offers to the signals and slots of the slider and the label:

<source lang="cpp">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>

#include <QtGui/QLayout>
#include <QtGui/QSlider>
#include <QtGui/QLabel>

#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>

using namespace Marble;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);
QWidget *window = new QWidget;

// Create a Marble QWidget without a parent
MarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MarbleWidget();

// Load the Plain map
mapWidget->setMapThemeId("earth/plain/plain.dgml");

// Hide the FloatItems: OverviewMap, ScaleBar and Compass
mapWidget->setShowOverviewMap(false);
mapWidget->setShowScaleBar(false);
mapWidget->setShowCompass(false);

// Set the map quality to gain speed
mapWidget->setMapQuality( NormalQuality, Still );
mapWidget->setMapQuality( LowQuality, Animation );

// Create a horizontal zoom slider and set the default zoom
QSlider * zoomSlider = new QSlider(Qt::Horizontal);
zoomSlider->setMinimum( 1000 );
zoomSlider->setMaximum( 2400 );

mapWidget->zoomView( zoomSlider->value() );

// Create a label to show the geodetic position
QLabel * positionLabel = new QLabel();
positionLabel->setSizePolicy( QSizePolicy::Preferred, QSizePolicy::Fixed );

// Add all widgets to the vertical layout.
QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout;
layout->addWidget(mapWidget);
layout->addWidget(zoomSlider);
layout->addWidget(positionLabel);

// Center the map onto a given position
GeoDataCoordinates home(-60.0, -10.0, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree);
mapWidget->centerOn(home);

// Connect the map widget to the position label.
QObject::connect( mapWidget, SIGNAL( mouseMoveGeoPosition( QString ) ),
positionLabel, SLOT( setText( QString ) ) );

// Connect the zoom slider to the map widget and vice versa.
QObject::connect( zoomSlider, SIGNAL( valueChanged(int) ),
mapWidget, SLOT( zoomView(int) ) );
QObject::connect( mapWidget, SIGNAL( zoomChanged(int) ),
zoomSlider, SLOT( setValue(int) ) );

window->setLayout(layout);
window->resize( 400, 300 );

window->show();

return app.exec();
}
</source>

Save the code above as <tt>marble_control.cpp</tt> and compile it:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o marble_control marble_control.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui
</source>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./marble_control</tt> and you end up with a map application that displays our globe with a zoom slider below:

In the previous tutorial you've seen how easy it is to embed a [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html MarbleWidget] into a Qt application: Just create a MarbleWidget, set a map theme on it and ... you're done already.

Next we'll extend that example a bit and write our own little paint method to add some extra content to the globe. To facilitate this, Marble provides a painting hook called [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1MarbleWidget.html#47e87a8639f38e9da380923453a6f35f MarbleWidget::customPaint]. It is called in between of the normal paint operations: After the background and tiles are painted, but before the top layers like float items (info boxes).

The customPaint operation is called with a [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdeedu-apidocs/marble/html/classMarble_1_1GeoPainter.html GeoPainter]: An extended [http://doc.trolltech.com/qpainter.html QPainter] which not only is able to paint at certain screen (pixel) positions, but also at certain geo (lat,lon) positions. We'll make use of that feature now. To keep things simple again, we just add a little 'Hello World' message indicated by a green circle.

<source lang="cpp">
#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <marble/MarbleWidget.h>
#include <marble/GeoPainter.h>

using namespace Marble;

class MyMarbleWidget : public MarbleWidget
{
public:
virtual void customPaint(GeoPainter* painter);
};

void MyMarbleWidget::customPaint(GeoPainter* painter)
{
GeoDataCoordinates home(8.4, 49.0, 0.0, GeoDataCoordinates::Degree);
painter->setPen(Qt::green);
painter->drawEllipse(home, 7, 7);
painter->setPen(Qt::black);
painter->drawText(home, "Hello Marble!");
}

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc,argv);
MyMarbleWidget *mapWidget = new MyMarbleWidget;
mapWidget->setMapThemeId("earth/openstreetmap/openstreetmap.dgml");
mapWidget->show();
return app.exec();
}
</source>

Save the code above as <tt>my_marble.cpp</tt> and compile it:

<source lang="bash">
g++ -I /usr/include/qt4/ -o my_marble my_marble.cpp -lmarblewidget -lQtGui
</source>

If things go fine, execute <tt>./my_marble</tt> and you end up with a globe view similar to this:

[[Image:Marble-geopainter.png]]

There may be situations where MarbleWidget::customPaint() does not suit your needs. This can be the case when you don't want to paint at the very top position (above all other items), or when subclassing MarbleWidget is not possible for some reason. In that case, have a look at the next chapter [[Projects/Marble/LayerInterface|Drawing in Custom Layers]]

The previous tutorial showed how to override the customPaint() method in MarbleWidget to paint on top of the map. It is also possible to paint at different layer positions. This is similar to providing a z-order of elements being painted.

To achieve this, we'll take a look at an example. Instead of deriving from MarbleWidget, we create our own Marble::LayerInterface class. After passing it to Marble, it will be included in painting similar to how customPaint() was called. This time however we are able to specify at which layer to paint.

To illustrate the painting in different layers, the code below paints a clock and implements the ability to dynamically switch its layer position by pressing '+'. Notice how the current layer position is indicated in the window title. When painting in the "STARS" layer, you won't see anything -- we'll paint behind the map. In the "SURFACE" layer, city names and other placemarks will be painted on top of us. In contrast, "ORBIT" will make us paint over placemarks, while float items (info boxes) still paint above us. This will change when we paint in the "USER TOOLS" layer.
