Re: [Geoserver-users] openlayers WMSGetFeatureInfo and geoserver too sensitive
Hi,
Check with Firebug which kind of requests your application is really sending to
Geoserver. It looks like it can use WFS and GetFeature but until now I have
believed it is WMS and GetFeatureInfo. Actually you would probably get better
answers from OpenLayers list.

in the openlayers wmsgetfeatureinfo request but no change, the points are still
very difficult to click even with these extreme settings
From the open layers docs tolerance doesn’t seem to be a supported parameter
anymore though

Mark,
You might take a look at the clickTolerance setting as described at the link
below:
http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.13.1/doc/apidocs/files/OpenLayers/Control/GetFeature-js.html#OpenLayers.Control.GetFeature.clickTolerance
Hope this helps.

Subject: [Geoserver-users] openlayers WMSGetFeatureInfo and geoserver too
sensitive
I am using openlayers 2 and issuing a WMSGetFeatureInfo request to geoserver
It works fine but It is far to sensitive to where you click – if you don’t get
right in the centre of a point or icon it finds nothing, it can take 2 or 3
attempts to get a response even if clicking carefully and zoomed in
Is there any way to make that click “less sensitive” so it will pick up the
closest point to the mouse click ?
I know this isn’t strictly a geoserver issue but I’ve found nothing useful on
the openlayers forums
