Map markers disappear when attempting to change their color

Bug
1

When I create a polygon on the map, initially the markers appear in red.

But if I change the color, not only does the color not update - the markers disappear!

Great! Thanks for looking into it.

On the subject of color selection…
I’m not sure if it’s a related issue or not, but I noticed that the color picker in the UI Builder has an initial alpha value of 0. This isn’t really a bug per se, just a little confusing at first.

Above: The only reason a color shows up is because alpha has been changed from 0.

As you are aware, the color picker for the map location markers don’t have a place in the UI to specify alpha, but if behind the scenes they are still operating on RGBA instead of RGB, and defaulting to alpha=0 when a user chooses a color, maybe that’s why they disappear? This is all total speculation on my part, so I’m probably wrong. :sweat_smile: But it’s a thought that came to mind.
