            Bug ID: 333484
           Summary: Rabet does not appear on screen the second time Marble
                    is launched
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: marble
           Version: 1.7 (KDE 4.12)
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: data

I am using Fedora 20, Marble reports 1.7 using KDE 4.12.2.

Setup:  I put the dgml file into the openstreetmap folder, the kml file goes in
the placemarks folder, and the Rabet goes in the bitmaps folder.

Launch Marble for the first time, and you will see a yellow push
pin.(firstlaunch.jpg)

Close Marble.

Open Marble for the second time.  Rabet is no longer a yellow push pin, Rabet
is simply a yellow dot.(secondlaunch.jpg)

How to correct:

At the directory: /home/user/.local/share/marble/placemarks/ simply delete the
file Rabet_local.cache and the yellow push pin will return the next time the
program is opened.

The cache file needs to be deleted prior to every launch in order to have
proper operation of points of interest.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place the files in the appropriate directories
2. Launch Marble
3. Close Marble
4. Launch Marble again
Actual Results:  
Designated point of interest bitmaps only appear on the first launch

Expected Results:  
Designated point of interest bitmaps should properly appear every time the
program is launched, without having to hunt down and delete .cache files.

The ability to toggle KML files independently within dgml is a fairly new
feature, this problem makes that feature much less useful the more points of
interest appear on screen.  Imagine a few hundred yellow dots on screen in a
relatively small area without a color coding or shape variance for
identification.
