Description

After using Misison planner for some time now to plan flights I have some inputs on the planning functionality.

When selecting a waypoint from the lower list portion of the screen can we please make it select & highlight on the map portion. Because of how *awesome* the quadplane vtol nav is I get to drop lots of waypoints in the same place which makes managing them later on a fun time.

It would also be awesome if you could duplicate WPs from the list or map from the right click menu

insert WPs in the list from a right click menu

drag reordering of the list would be phenomenal, life changing even

Other option, break out location from function and have the function list refer to locations if applicable

ie:
A - ##.####,-##.#####
B - ##.####,-##.#####

1 - vtol takeoff -- (no location ) - 10 m
2 - waypoint -- @ location A - 10m
3 - speed change -- (no location ) - no altitude
4 - waypoint -- @ location B - 10m
5 - vtol land -- @ location B - 0m

Research direction

Start from the Mission Planner planning screen and trace the waypoint list, map selection, and context-menu entry points described in the issue. Split the requests into separately testable behaviors—selection highlighting, waypoint duplication and insertion, list reordering, and location/function separation—and define completion for each before implementing.
