Title: Info arrow points to remote LoPoint
Post by: Graf Geo on March 28, 2025, 21:44:49
There is a problem with the round info arrow pointing to a found LoPoint when moving the map screen.

Easy to reproduce:

Search with the global search any location. City, restaurant, mountain, it doesn't matter.

Select the location from the results list. The map jumps there and the LoPoint icon is displayed (white with a blue border). The info panel for the point also appears at the bottom of the screen. See screenshot 1.

Move this down so that it disappears. The LoPoint icon remains. Correct.

Now move the map until the LoPoint is outside. A round indicator with an arrow and distance to the LoPoint appears at the edge of the screen. Correct. See screenshot 2.

Move the map back to the LoPoint. I would now like to remove the LoPoint icon. I select "clear map screen" and confirm. The LoPoint icon disappears. Perfect.

But: when I now move the map, this round information marker with arrow and distance to the removed LoPoint continues to appear permanently. It is not possible to get rid of it, except by closing and restarting Locus. Somehow the search result seems to remain in the cache.

I'm unable to simulate it, btw. thanks for the report.

If possible, try it with a version I'll prepare today. There are some changes how internally bottom point panel is handled, so maybe it is already fixed as a side-effect, thanks!

Thanks for checking. The problem is still present in beta 4.26.3.3. It only happens when the location you are looking for appears as a LoPoint icon on the map (which is not always the case) and remains as a LoPoint icon when you swipe down the info on the point (this doesn't always happen either).

I have also just noticed that the icon is displayed larger than usual in this case.

Then simply select "clear map screen" and move the map. Voilá.

Here is a short screen video:

Nevertheless, I will of course check the next version to see if it still occurs.

Thanks, in the latest beta 4.26.3.5 it no longer seems to occur at first glance. I will test it in peace.

Have a nice weekend!
