<p>Hi Calvin,</p>
<p>Looking at the list of issues I do not see any behaviour from the
maintainer that shows a necessity for a fork. And there is just
one user who asked for a snapshop feature, in two separate issues,
one not even with a title.<br>
</p>
Have you tried making a full description of the new feature and how
it will integrate nicely and why the feature fits the scope of the
project, followed by a well tested pull request with the new
feature?
<p>There are some unanswered merge requests but no visible repeated
attempts to get the maintainer's attention. I'd try that first.</p>
<p>Making snapshops of the canvas sounds like a feature that has
little to do with iterating through features. Maybe you are best
served with another tiny plugin that does just that?<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers, Hannes<br>
</p>

<div>Those analysts would like some additional features
including automatic snapshoting of the canvas and saving it as
an image for each feature. Something like this has been
asked for by other users of the plugin over 2 years ago. See
the issues.</div>

<div>In the comments of "Future of Plugin" the developers have
made it clear that they want to keep the plugin simple.
Probably because of this policy I see that someone else
created a Go2NextFeaturePlus geared for OSM work and it is
labeled as experimental.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I don't like replicating capability, but given that a
plugin developer is unwilling to make any significant changes,
how do you feel about another similar plugin be developed that
has the additional capability that we need. I am not sure how
to handle this situation. I don't think it would take much
time to create a new plugin to do this with the expanded
capabilities.</div>

<div>Thanks for your thoughts.</div>
