'Area too large' when trying to create a new issue #976

When trying to create a new issue there is now the problem with Cyclescape alert saying the selected area is too large. Screenshot 2021-01-28 at 18 19 28

You need to create a smaller issue. If the issue size is greater than 0.1 square degrees we don't allow it. I don't really know what 0.1 square degrees looks like but basically you should be able to create small issues but not very large ones.

Roxanne, I suspect slightly smaller will be fine.

I disagree with this. It is a fundamental problem with Cyclescape that there are topics that are not specific to any area at all. They are a general issue that applies to the whole campaign so it should work for the whole campaign area like it used to.

Kind Regards Roxanne De Beaux Executive Director Camcycle

There hasn’t been any change at all. Area-wide issues continue to be supported given their need. I suspect the area drawn was just very slightly larger than the limit.
