Plan: AutoWP, Survey (Gridv2) does not allow input of area

Open rmackay9 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The Plan screen's AutoWP Survey (Gridv2) seems quite broken in that it does not allow users to input an area that will be mapped. I would have expected it to use the user defined Polygon like other AutoWP features but instead it seems to have a built-in "Edit Box" feature. The colouring of the icons is odd (white) and the icons don't actually seem to work.

I vote for removing or fixing this screen. Perhaps we already have enough alternatives that this one isn't required.

@rmackay9, It does actually work (although I agree it is not very intuitive!) .. you need to first create a box by clicking the “box” icon then dragging (second icon from top). After the initial step you can then use the “edit box” action to adjust the area, although only turning it into a parallelogram, not free polygonal editing as far as I can tell.

Cheers,
