I would expect that in the timetable editor I only would need to provide the departure time. But the Travel Time is not automatically added:

I believe you must have created the trip when the pattern had one stop, then added Vlissingen, revisited the timetable editor, and found the stop blank.
Currently this is the expected behavior, but we do recognize that the ideal behavior would be to apply the travel times to existing trips.

No, the pattern was already created. I'll invite you to the project, so you can see for yourself :)

Do you mean the pattern already had two stops before creating the trop 0612? I don't think this is the case. If you add a new trip, you should see the travel/dwell time for the stop automatically applied here.

This is what happens if you add a trip to the end:

Editing that:

So there are quite a view advancements that could be taken here. It should obviously automatically fill in the travel time. But also adding the trip might be done more intuitively. For example by providing the interval time ahead of time in a box next to the "add" button. Additionally it would be a nice feature if you could increase/descrease the time without typing.

I would like to see that one work. But I hope after typing 21:00:00 it would just update (untouched) fields.

Currently, the way to offset all times for a trip is to use the "offset" feature.

I understand, I think the "excel" way of just entering a bunch of times, and the other columns follow, is far more practical.
