In 3D view the marker's dir will return 0 (zero) even though in map view the marker points to something like 146, in preview the dir is somewhere near 0 and looking at map it points to that somewhere near 0 dir (the dir seems to fluctuate between -3 and 3 there)..
The rectangle/ellipse and the 'icon' markers also behave a bit differently in this regard, see repro steps.
1b. Place any 'icon' marker in map view and set it some dir
2b. preview, look at map and see the marker not pointing where you set it to point in the editor
3b. return to eden
4b. go to map view and see how the marker still points the way in the editor as you set it to point.
This issue was found and fix on friday. Please check it out again and let me know if it is still happening ;)
Thank you for your help and have a nice day :)
