<ul></ul>Here is how I see the issue:
<ul>
<li>the first vertex added doesn't show. This is because the track that would show is a line geometry, so it takes at least two vertices to draw. And there is no specific marker drawn for the points.</li>
<li>a second vertex added will allow the track line to be drawn.</li>
</ul>
<p>I propose that a vertex marker be drawn at the GPS position when the "Add track point" button is clicked. The marker would not be persistent for each position, but would be drawn at each new position.</p>
<p>In other words, the marker would appear only at the most recently added vertex. My reasoning on this is that the markers might imply editability and many markers may become confusing.</p>
Questions:
<ul>
<li>what shape should the marker have?</li>
<li>what color should it be?</li>
<li>what size should it be?</li>
</ul>
<p>I consider that a cross shape is probably good, with the color taken from the track color and the size taken from the cursor size. This would minimize the need for more controls on an already crowded panel.</p>
<p>Note that the marker would not be drawn when points are automatically added.</p> QGIS Application - Feature request #14920: [GPS Information Panel] Add vertex symbols in rubberband when we collect a polygonhttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/14920?journal_id=761362017-04-30T22:46:35ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com
