Wow thanks for the explanation! Makes Intro to GIS seem like a walk in the park. I suppose then this technically wouldn’t be a bug then, but a feature request to change the code (although sometimes that’s what a bug report is)—probably very inefficient. Maybe fixing the color issue that they’re working on wouldn’t bug me so much. Many of the pins I look at are red anyway, and it doesn’t bother me there.
So, if I’m understanding this correctly, the “observation pin” is different from all the others (which might explain why it doesn’t have the research grade dot?). Would it be possible to make it slightly larger or the same size as the other pins? This wouldn’t eliminate the “zoom lag” but it would eliminate this:
Maybe it’s slightly transparent on the edges?
I suppose ultimately this is just me getting peeved by something insignificant but if there’s a relatively easy way to change it that would be nice. Otherwise it’s not that big of a deal.
