• Markers

A pointer to a specific coordinate on a map that is represented as an image

• Marker Templates
  • The Marker Template panel allows the definition of new marker templates and the configuration of the existing ones.
  • As its name indicates, a marker template is the abstract definition of a map marker class that may be used to create derivate marker instances that inherit its properties. Modifying a marker template may potentially modify all its derived marker instances.
  • Technically a marker is a pointer to a specific coordinate on a map that is represented as an image. Marker templates are not associated to any layer as they don’t have physical representation. For the same reason, marker templates don’t have defined coordinates.

• • The panel is divided into left and right sides. On the left side of the panel there is a list of currently available marker templates and a set of buttons to perform operations. On the right side of the panel there is a collection of controls to modify the properties of a  selected marker template.
