is this really an issue (genuinely asking)?

#4 Updated by R. R. over 8 years ago

This issue is quite important to me. As demonstrated in the screencast the marker line is visible at larger scales although it is located far away from the current map section.

yes, but this does not explains what the actual bug is (at least to me), so I still do not understand if this is a corner case (even if very important to you) or a more general issue. Thanks!

Hi Giovanni, in the attached file the marker line interval is set to 40 map units (m). How can markers with a fixed interval change their position? Panning a map with several marker lines and pattern fills is a bit annoying because half of the map content changes the position the whole time.

I think those two issues should get resolved by enabling one option: Open project properties dialog > "General" tab > "General settings" group > Avoid artifacts when project is rendered as map tiles.

Could you please try and report back if that helped?

Thanks, zooming/panning the map canvas works just fine now. I haven't noticed this checkbox before.
