GeoTrace interval timer is restarted on screen rotation #2646

Open zestyping opened 6 years ago

zestyping commented 6 years ago

Software and hardware versions

All versions of Collect.

Problem description

When the screen is rotated, the interval timer (for automatic recording mode) in the GeoTraceActivity is restarted. So, for example, if the activity is set to automatically record a point every 10 seconds, and you rotate the screen exactly 9 seconds after the last point was recorded, then instead of recording another point at the expected time 1 second later, the next point is recorded 10 seconds later.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Open the GeoTrace widget and start collecting a trace in automatic mode. Set the interval to 10 seconds. After a point is recorded, wait 9 seconds and then rotate the screen. 10 more seconds will pass before the next point is recorded.

Expected behavior

In the tested scenario, after screen rotation, only 1 second should pass before the next point is recorded.

The title of this issue is still accurate, but the detailed description is now out of date. #2920 has a better description.
