| - Added QDeclarativeGeoRoute::equals to perform deep comparisons in QML. |
| - MapItemView now exposes add and remove transitions, so that they can |
| be changed (defaults are none for add, and item fade out for remove). |
| - Enabled incremental updates in PlaceSearchModel, which prevents previousPage or |
| nextPage from resetting the model, but rather appending the new data to it. |
| - [QTBUG-68966] Added Map.visibleArea property. |
| - [QTBUG-62683][QTBUG-62397] Enabled nesting of MapItemView. This required |
| a behavioral change, as MapItemView is now a MapItemGroup, not anymore a |
| plain QObject. Due to a bug, MapItemView was previously not a Qt Quick |
| Item, making it possible to create it as a child of any QObject. This |
| has now been fixed, so if you happen to have a MapItemView in your scene |
| which is not a child of a Qt Quick Item, you will get an error message. |
| - Enabled asynchronous incremental updates of QPlaceReply. |
| - Changed QDeclarativeGeoMapItemBase::geoShape property from read-only into R/W. |
| - Added support for route legs. |
| - [QTBUG-70499] Fixed HERE plugin requesting the route incorrectly. |
| - Added ESRI place search manager to the ESRI plugin. |

| **************************************************************************** |
| * QtPositioning * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| - Exposed mercatorToCoord and coordToMercator to QML. |
| - [QTBUG-62875] QGeoPath can now be cleared directly using clearPath. |
| - Added QGeoPolygon::perimeter property. |
| - Added holes support to QGeoPolygon. Currently visualized only when using |
| in a MapPolygon with the MapboxGL plugin. |
| - [QTBUG-43435] Added Geoclue2 position plugin. |
| - [QTBUG-52660] QtPositioning now properly checks for authorization on iOS. |
