Hey guys, I think that in order to finally pass my review for my app I need to add Driving directions. Is there a way this can be done by implementing code without having remove and re-add over 500 locations on BT? thanks for your help!

(and it will require some fooling around and testing) is to snoop around line 568 of BT_screen_map.m and see if you can't just 'force' the app to provide directions, as if each and every entry had requested it. It's either that, or search/replace your BT Database for every location and change the string. Cheers! -- Smug Comments What I would do for this one time app is...

Code seems like a daunting horror decending from the dark days of the warewolves, and complex coding is like this. However, to cherry pick out bits of code is not difficult and it makes a lot of sense! Comments Just do what Smug said, I would recommend.

And paste them into a text editor. Use the find/replace function of the text editor (I use text wrangler) to change all the JSON you want quickly. Then take the resulting text document and use it to feed the map by either using a JSON Snippet plugin, or using a dataURL for the map screen. If you need elaboration, let me know. -Chris Comments Another thing you could try is to copy all your locations (from your config.txt). And paste them into a text editor.
