Creating and populating Events should be renewed too!

[Guzzist]

One more of the most important USPs of MyRoute-app is: possibility to create events, offer it to limited friends or whole community, and manage the particpants.
But if you want other people to come to your event, your offer must be attractive! The Article must be shiny like advertisement and describe your event in perfect text format and some pictures.

But this is currently not the case!

Dear developers, please could you enhance this:

• change the field type of Information of an event from plain text to formated text. The field is very small (ugly to enter text) and it's not possible to prepare a nice text, because of missing text formats like bold, italic, lager font size, head lines, text colors or bullet list.
  Also for the readers, the field has same size. Also ugly to read because the reader need to scroll in the text a lot!
  Why it couldn't be Like in Travel Stories? There we have all that fancy stuff to enter content in applicable format.

• and the field Information should become bigger (after font format is available) to get the feeling as a poster. We would like to do atvertisement for our events!
  If needed, the area for Organiser, and Participants could become smaller.

• or/and would it be possible to devlop a solution to be able to attach a pdf document to the information of an event? So, the readers could download it - to get p.e. something like a poster?

• by the way, a link (procedure) to download the event (may only the date) into users local calendar (ics file) will be appreciated also. Nowadays it's state of the Art...

• there is the possibility to upload a picture for the "avatar" of the event - like in Travel stories. That's nice, because this creates a high recognition value in the list of events.
  But unlike in Travel stories, it's not possible to upload an image for the background in field Information in the event. It's a hard coded picture, but the also hard coded text color isn't easy to read with that background image.

• the Area for Messages in Event looks like from former centuries SMS: there is only a micro field to enter the text for a message! Pleas please make this enter field wider and with more lines to support easy entering of text. And also here: please give the possibility to enter formated text! Currently, not even a line break is possible!

May this issues will be eliminated by big rework of web page next time.
Or our powerfull genious developers can mitigate it sooner?
Please @Corjan-Meijerink could you check the issues, and tell us about the future of Events. I can se, you are fixing unbelievable rapidly a lot of issues with Android Auto and Car Play. But other users, which are not riding wit such devices are waiting for fix of issues too.

I'm surprised at the lack of response and no discussion here.
Apparently, the group of bikers who only plan routes from A to B, or a circular route lasting 1 hour, or who use AA/CP, are louder. And they seem to be tying up all the developers' resources.

This is somewhat frustrating, as many other tools on the market offer these simple planning tools. However, MRA has much greater potential—but it should also be kept up to date.

Long-distance travelers, storytellers, and event organizers need these special capabilities of MRA...

@Guzzist:
I can only agree, the overall focus is missing. The MyRouteApp/MRA Web Planner can do much more than just know and use a lot. The MAR app in MRA V4.4.x is/was already very good, so why the launch of the MRA V5.0 beta now?
@Corjan-Meijerink
The Web Planner will soon need the full, preferential attention of the developers. What Guzzist wrote is also a wish for me... MRA can do a lot, but the fine-tuning is still missing, as described above...

Many thanks to the MRA Team!
