Description

Currently, panning the storymap causes the marker in the minimap to move, even though the base map in the minimap is not moving. This may relate to other bugs which are causing the markers to appear off-point.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the attached minimap behavior while panning the main storymap, then trace how the main map and minimap markers are positioned. Done means the minimap marker stays aligned with the fixed minimap base map while the main map pans, without introducing off-point marker placement.
