Place Markers

[DonnC]

Hello, im glad i found this package, good work
Will it be possible to place a marker on a given point, since i can measure distance and pointers are placed, will it be possible if user has ability to maybe tap somewhere and i place a marker on that location

I hope its clear, looking forward to your response

Hey @DonnC thanks for the feedback.

What do you mean by placing markers? Do you want to "highlight" a point that was set for a measurement?

Or do you want to get the coordinate of the point on the background?

[DonnC]

i understand on measuring the distance, the plugin places those points and lines right which is great, but can i place a Marker (point) programmatically at a certain coordinate on the floor plan?

[DonnC]

@ChristianNavolskyi my idea is centered around indoor navigation, so i will do my measurements on the physical ground to get the distance where the user is, and i will map those coordinates to my floor plan. From there i would like to use this plugin to place those mapped coordinates or point as a marker in the app

is something like this possible because i just need a way to place a dot or marker on the floor plan somewhere in the app. This is because the plugin already places points for measurements when i tap on the floor plan on the screen, will it be possible to expose such a functionality to place points to where ever i need to place them on the floor plan on the app

[DonnC]

Let me rephrase, is there a way to expose the methods that translate app screen coordinates to the floor plan measurement system and vice versa. I want to be able to place a dot using floor plan measurement values programmatically then the app should place a dot on the screen where that measurement value is.
This is a request of the reverse process of what the plugin does, and is it possible to do so @ChristianNavolskyi because i want to put a marker on the screen using code and not when user taps on the screen first

Sorry for the late reply. After checking out the code (haven't been working on it for some time) I see that we currently only have the way out, as you already found out.

Currently the other way is not implemented, but would of course be a nice feature.

[DonnC]

Okay thank you, are there any current plans for it or that you plan to?
indeed i have seen its been a long time since you have worked on it, i would appreciate it any future plans you have

[c15yi]

Yes this project has been sleeping a bit in the last months.

Initially we wanted to see if there is demand for such plugin at all and then decide on further steps.

Now that you are here I am quite happy to see it come to good use. I will try to find some time to work on it.
The plugin also needs some updating of its dependencies, since a lot has changed in the flutter world lately.

Indeed, thank you so much for the assurance, will look forward to it and hopefully also write about this plugin.
