Track or Event Highlight Circle

Whenever a single track or a single event is plotted, Solar Maps highlights the start location of the track or location of the event by drawing a rapidly expanding and then contracting circle. This is intended to help the user quickly spot the location of the event on the current map area.

The color used for the highlight circle is the same color as is used for plotting individual events (ie. event marker). See Color and Font Settings for instructions on settings the event marker color.

This will redraw the map and track or event, and show the highlight circle again.

 

Note: When multiple tracks or events are being plotted simultaneously, no highlight circle appears.
