Updates for December 7th

There's another new button on the edit Log File tab exposing a feature that was previously a little too well hidden, this time to select which segments should be marked as "junk":

That brings up a popup where you can quickly choose which segments are junk (and therefore shouldn't be displayed in the rest of the site) and which have the activity you're interested in:
The colour of the junk segments on that page has been changed subtly from red/orange to a more neutral gray too.
The GPS Data Filters page has been completely overhauled too so it should hopefully be a bit easier to use and faster to add certain type of filters too.
Click on the Filters side panel of an activity you want to filter:

The GPS Data Filters page now has clearer menu options and a bigger preview maps and graphs to show the results of the filters you have applied:

And the individual filter pages now have more space to show their options and view the maps and graphs:
The Time filter now has a preview map to show you the segment that is being discarded.
Most filters now have a "Copy to tag" menu option that will let you copy the filter and it's parameters to a tag. This means that once you find a good combination of filters to clean up your activity, you can have them automatically applied to all data you upload from now on tagged with that tag.

Recent changes in GPSLog Labs have focused on improving the log file editing process:

The Add a Place, Remove stops and Manually create segments commands on the Log File edit page have been changed from menu options to more prominent buttons:
Remove stops is a new command that allows you to quickly and easily remove unwanted stops from a Log File. Multiple stops can be removed in one step which is easier than removing each stop or cut in turn.
When specifying an unmatched place, previous activity is now used to provide a suggestion of likely places it could be from those in the neighbourhood of the start location:
The Reprocess confirmation page has also been redesigned and the page sequence after queuing a file for reprocessing has been improved.
The Speed/Pace vs Distance graphs on the activity detail page (Graphs vs Distance tab) now have a new "scaling" algorithm that isn't as extreme and should make pace graphs easier to read.
There's also a new link at the bottom of the route Altitude Profile tab to show all altitude profile thumbnails for all logs. This is useful for circuits so you can easily check they are all correctly marked as forward or reversed direction.
