- 67. Scratchpad2 Line wrap problem fixed Maps with colour separation (useful for weed distribution) Integrated mapping tools - dynamically display point locality data, regional data and shape files as overlays on a Google Map Over 2012 a number of additional enhancements are planned. These include: Integrated Single Sign On (SSO), (with author-ID) Proper Globally Unique Identifiers beyond URL’s Scratchpad site registry with metadata and visualisations concerning content in all the Scratchpads and author level metrics on content Rebuild of http://Scratchpads.eu, focusing on content within sites rather than the Scratchpad infrastructure Identification key building and species database visualisations derived from character data in the matrix editor Centralised services on controlled vocabularies Phylogenetic analytical services Improved training functionality
