Only radius-ruler. But this is inconvenient for each individual marker

For what purposes and to whom this option may be useful? Please describe the user story.

gtrus21 commented 1 year ago

for example 1) for searches: immediately see the boundaries of the search region and do not go beyond them.
2) at any time see which poi / buildings / objects are within the radius of each marker

Yes that's probably a duplicate issue cause people want to draw area around a certain point and that's how markers could be used.

I found a solution! I downloaded the radius around me app on Android. It does precisely what I have asked Osm to do. It still would be nice to see this in the Osm app as well. Sometimes it is better to comply than to balk.
