Hello, is it possible somehow to have toggle controls for location fab button? if clicked -> show location marker and follow if clicked again -> hide location marker and not follow

Thanks!

Hie, I am trying to run the plugin using the default page app as coded in your example. However am failing to reproduce it and show live tracking of location. Has the coded being change such that the example has been left broken>

I want build a button first click subscribe location and after that is unsubscribed? I can't find an example for this case. Please let me know i can do this?

Please note: currently, there are immense issues with the map view provided by flutter_map. These issues are fixed in https://github.com/fleaflet/flutter_map/pull/923. You should not merge this PR until flutter_map published 0.13.1.

Why did we do this?

I really like the location plugin's Dart interface, but unfortunately, the underlying native code is awful; both of style and documentation. For our use case, we decided to get rid of the location plugin hence and to move to geolocator plugin.

Another advantage is compatibility: the geolocator plugin does not rely uniquely on the GMS, but works with LocationManager (native AOSP location implementation) too. An HMS (Huawei mobility service) implementation is on its way.

In my opinion, free dependencies as in open source are in the spirit of Open Street Map. This is why I propose to use the provided modifications to migrate to geolocator.

Hey there,

is it possible to modify the accuracy of the GPS location like so: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64714745/flutter-how-to-get-my-location-high-accuracy

I couldn't find the correct way of doing it with this plugin.

Thanks in advance!

hi, thanks for this great library. i had to replace latlong with latlong2 ~~in order to make it work together with flutter_map. they switched lately in their branch 'issues/829-nullsafety... maybe this is something you want to migrate, too?~~

nope, not that easy... feel free to delete this issue.

The flutter_map package recently moved its coordinate implementation from latlong to latlong2 as latlong was marked as discontinued by its maintainers. I did this change for this package too.

Please note that the changes won't work up to now as the updated flutter_map is not published yet. To test this change, please override flutter_map to be imported from upstream master.

I already implemented this change even though the upstream is not published yet as I would like to avoid a transition time in which this package won't be usable.

As part of https://github.com/fleaflet/flutter_map/pull/992 & https://github.com/fleaflet/flutter_map/discussions/927#discussioncomment-1135466, I (a documentation author) am contacting plugin authors to ensure the information about this plugin on the new documentation is correct; or alternatively, if this plugin is not yet on the existing list, to check whether you would like to add your plugin to the new documentation.

I would also like you to check you conform to these new rules:

• this plugin is available via a pub.dev installation to make it easier for developers - if your plugin does not currently have a pub.dev page, please add one or let me know otherwise,
• the plugin documentation includes enough information for installation and basic setup/functionality,
• the plugin includes a runnable example and/or screenshots,
• the plugin description contains the words ' - IN BETA' after the author link on the same line if your plugin is in beta,

Currently I have copied over the existing plugin descriptions, and you can see these here: https://flutter-map.vercel.app/plugins/list. Please note that this documentation is currently unapproved and should not be used unless otherwise directed, as some information may be incorrect or missing, or might change in the future. There is no ETA at the moment, but things seem to be moving along.

Should you wish for the description to remain the same as current on the page linked above, you do not have to reply, you can close this issue.

If you wish to change any information, please leave this issue open and add your reply as a comment.

flutter_map maintainers do not take any responsibility for this message, I am the sole author.

On behalf of myself and the flutter_map community thank you for your excellent plugin :).

The sensors_plus package is of much better code quality, has more maintainers and - in opposite to flutter_compas - compatible with Flutter's 2nd version of Android embedding.

I would recommend to use sensors_plus instead of flutter_compass.
