Created attachment 141680 [details] video showing "sticky" compass infobox as the user rotates New York City SUMMARY I'm trying to use the compass info box to display the cardinal directions. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. ensure the compass info box is visible (View » Info Boxes » Compass) 2. right-click and drag to rotate the map 3. watch the compass to see whether its orientation updates as the map is rotated OBSERVED RESULT The compass rose always stays aligned with the window border, though the letter at the top changes from N to S and back again as the orientation goes through the full rotation EXPECTED RESULT the compass rose should always keep the N arrow pointing toward true north. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Marble Virtual Globe Version 2.2.20 (2.3 development version) (debian marble package 4:20.12.3-1) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm attaching a video captured with recordmydesktop that demonstrates the "sticky" compass.
