[Marble-devel] Problem in drawing a rectangle across date boundaries.

[Gabriel Voicu]

Hi everyone,

My name is Gabriel Voicu, I am student in GSoC 2010 program working for
digiKam, KDE.
In one part of my GSoC project, I had to improve the current gpssearch from
digiKam (gpssearch uses a marble widget instance). All went good, but when I
tried to draw a rectangle on the map across it's date boundaries, the
rectangle transformed in a polygon having a "V" form. When I draw the
rectangle inside the map, without crossing the date-boundaries the rectangle
draws good. I've attached a screenshot with the problem. The code that draws
the rectangle is here: http://pastebin.com/2rkzkxp6 .(painter is
Marble::GeoPainter* )

I will take this opportunity to thank you all for making Marble possible! I
like this project very much!

Have a nice day,
Gabriel Voicu
