Alternate "map center icon".

Post by T2D »

Suggestion: provide a larger, alternate "map center icon".

Admittedly this is a selfish request, because I occasionally have difficulty tapping the "map center icon" with my fat fingers. I end up double or triple tapping it with undesired consequences (like selecting a menu choice I didn't want).

Perhaps there can be an option to change the appearance of the icon from a tiny circle to a slightly larger circle with crosshairs? I think I'd have better luck tapping a double-sized circle.

It could be a choice placed in the user-setting file. I don't believe one would need the ability to frequently switch icons (via the UI).

OK, I just saw a video of an older version of AQ and it had the "reticle" style of icon I described above. I also saw the icon style is listed as the fifth requested feature in this list: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=224

All this to say, I guess I'm not the only person who wants this feature .. and I've arrived late to the party!

Hi and thanks for your suggestion,
Yes you're right you're not the first one.
This icon has been recently updated and some users were not particularly happy...
A related request is also to let the user choose custom icons like a plane or boat.
I'll do that as soon as possible.
Best regards
