Tasks locked by a user should have a different colour on the map

• Currently it's difficult for users to keep track of which task they locked when mapping collaboratively.

Describe the solution you'd like

• It would be easier for mappers if the task locked by them was updated on the map with a colour.
• This helps to keep track of which task a user is currently working on.
• The legend should probably be updated to include this different colour option.

More than addition of more colors on tasks. We can consider other alternatives.
Alternative 1:
We can highlight the task that has been locked by the same user account from which they are logged in. The highlight can be done by darkening the border of that task. Since we don't highlight the task on selection and rather zoom to the task, this alternative can also be considered.

Alternative 2:
We can take reference from tasking manager. In TM, if you have hover to the tasks you mapped, a pop up appears saying "This task is mapped by you". Similar approach can be followed in FMTM too by adding pop up saying this task is locked by you.

@spwoodcock What is your take on those alternatives??

Great ideas @manjitapandey 👍

Why not both? 😄 We could add a different border and a tooltip when the user hovers over the task.

@spwoodcock , you mean to say that if the _task is locked by the user themself then a border should appear on the task and when a user hovers his/her task a tooltip should appear.
And these 2 things are not applicable if the task is not locked by the user themself. Right?

[spwoodcock]

Yes exactly!

It would just make it very clear to the user which tasks they locked for mapping themselves, and which ones were locked by other people 👍

Every tasks though i haven't locked it shows "this task was locked by you" pop up.
