Sorry for the blurry pic. Turtle was retreating into woods during medium/heavy rain and dark lighting. Smallish turtle with plain, highly domed shell. Striking red/orange blotching on head and front legs.

Description

Large three-toed box turtle sitting in the middle of FM 2611 about 0.5 miles from intersection with FM 457. This is a little north of Sargent, TX. Turtle was trying to cross the road and head north into another pasture, but traffic had him stalled out in the roadway. I moved the turtle over to the ditch. Didn't take a photo because traffic was coming (no shoulder on this road).

Could you make the options for this field shorter, or add more options, e.g. an "unknown" option? 2-option fields are usually visualized as a "switch"-like interface in the mobile apps, which tends to look weird when the options are really long like this.

I changed it to "unknown|lt3in|gt3in","unknown|>3in|<3in" is probably less confusing but the <,> characters appear to be illegal

Posted by loarie almost 10 years ago

just re-read more carefully and see what you mean about the 3rd option making it render differently. Changed it to "unknown|Less than 3 in.|More than 3 in." to make it less confusing
