[Script] Snapshot Mode

It was broken in Beta and perhaps now in production as well.

If you just added one line you most probably miss the header:
In tampermonkey have have this code:

[code]// ==UserScript==
// @name Enable Snapshot Mode
// @namespace https://BraydenPeacock.ca/waze/scripts
// @version 0.3
// @description Enables the use of WME Snapshot mode (top right corner near country select)
// @author CoolCanuck
// @updateURL https://BraydenPeacock.ca/waze/scripts/SnapshotMode.user.js
// @include /^https://(editor-beta|www).waze.com/(./)?editor/./
// @exclude https://www.waze.com/user/*
// @grant GM_addStyle
// ==/UserScript==

GM_addStyle(“#snapshot-toggler { display: inline !important; }”);[/code]

Thank you! This works. I do not know why it did not work to follow the link in the original post in this thread.

Also, when I try to use the bookmarklet from the original post of this thread, I get the console error:

I apologize to those previously unable to use the grease/tampermonkey script. CloudFlare (a caching+DDoS+page optimizer) service I use took away comments (the double slashes, which are needed for userscripts). I have made it not take away slashes. Apologies. It should work now.

Thanks, CoolCanuck! I haven’t tried the script, but it looks like the bookmarklet doesn’t work for me. It says snapshot mode is enabled, but nothing is different on-screen, like voludu2 described a few weeks ago. Is anyone else able to use it? Running Chrome on Win7.

Yes, as a matter of fact it works quite nicely for me on Chrome …

Does not work in beta wme anymore. It changes to snapshot mode, but nothing is changed. Also cannot exit, by clicking Exit button. Have to press Return to edit mode button.

Works ok on usual WME.

Working now :slight_smile:

Awesome !!!

Thx

Hmm… does not work in beta for me.

In production, the userscript works for me but the bookmarklet does not.

I follow the instructions to drag the link to the bookmark bar, and the resulting bookmarklet contains

Does not work in release now… button is pressed, but nothing changes :frowning:

Is there an ETA for an update version. Cause it is a very useful tool. [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Really miss this too

Is the issue with the script or WME snapshot mode itself?

The script seems to work fine for me in that it enters snapshot mode, or so the WME banner says like in the past. Trouble is, there aren’t any changes present, and it just seems to show the current map.

If that’s the case, and this script merely exposes a slightly hidden feature of WME, I’m thinking it may be better to report the issue against WME itself, if that hasn’t already been done.

The script is fine. This is (as you so accurately described) a slightly hidden feature and all the script does is provide a simple UI to turn it on & off.

The underlying functionality seems to be broken. This has been reported via the Beta forum.

I apologize for the delay! I have been busy with exams, job searching, etc.

As of right now, from what I can tell (looking at the waze backend code), snapshot mode appears, but is broken. Waze will need to fix this, so, if this script was useful to you, please contact the community manager to let them know this functionality should be fixed. Thank you, and sorry.

I have made a bug report in WME Beta forums… No answer for now.

Not really a bug, we were never supposed to have snapshot mode. It was unreleased and still isn’t for our use. Waze has further restricted it to only those with permission. As previously discussed, contact your Community Manager. A bug report is not useful when it’s not a bug – but a request for us to have permission.

Thanks, PM sent to request its restoration. It is useful to see what some junior editors did to Quality Control their early edits. V/r Subs5

Can you be more specific on what kind of permission request? Understanding the type of permission would help us to ask the right questions.
Thanks
