I've spent this afternoon getting back in to developing my Driver Tool app having not contributed to this project in quite a while. I would like to get back working on this on a regular basis and try get it published on the android market place so that I can start using it.
Today I completed the functionality of the settings menu, for selecting either metric or imperial as a measurement system. A user will be prompted with this menu upon first installing the app. Once the user has selected their preference they are not prompted upon app start up again. They can access the options menu through the menu button. I've also included the functionality of adding and deleting a car with an options menu which operates more or less in the same way as the transaction adding and deleting functionality. I've give the user the option to enter in the manufacturer and car model themselves when adding a car. I may update this in the future to populate a selection of drop down menus from a database of makes and models. Due to the tedious nature of populating such a database I've left that out for now.
There are a number of things that need to be done still which I'm going to start on. The first of these things is the tyre pressure calculator. I'm going to get back in to OpenGL for this. I'll have to come up with a spec for this part of the app, because I've only a couple of concept ideas in my head right now. I suppose I should probably remove the tab and finish up testing the already implemented functionality to push for a release. One of the other things that still needs doing is to build non-place holder assets for the menus and tabs, and work on the styling of the app. I think I would like to change the background from the standard black.
