removed hotSpot element to center icon over its location #61

Closed andraje closed 7 years ago

andraje commented 7 years ago

After fixing the capitalization error (hotspot vs hotSpot), we saw kml icons being displayed way out into space. We decided that we preferred having the icons centered over its location and removed the hotSpot element. The kmls now look like they used to before the capitalization fix, when the renderers simply ignored the incorrectly capitalized hotspot.

What map are you using?

google earth

I tried on a coworker's machine who still has google earth installed. We didn't see that issue. Does this always happen or just in some cases? Can you send me the url you entered to get the kml that caused the issue? capture

It always happens. How far away the icon appears from the surface might be related to the icon size. We are using a 320 x 320 pixel icon and we get <hotSpot x="165.0" xunits="pixels" y="382.0" yunits=insetPixels" />

can you post the full kml from one of these cases?

Ask them the version of google earth and browser.

Was this resolved on your end?

andraje commented 7 years ago

Yes, it looks like the problem was somewhere else in the code. Thanks!
