#3777: Potlach 2 doesn't warn, when corrupting relations ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: petr.dlouhy@… | Owner: potlatch-dev@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: potlatch2 | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Comment(by Richard): The new combined way will be part of the relation. This has always been the case in all versions of Potlatch 1 and 2. Because Potlatch (1 and 2) generally renders relations, it should be immediately apparent to the user what their action has been. If there is a relation that is not adequately rendered by P2 - and that's certainly possible, because in P2 relation rendering is dictated by the stylesheet rather than being automatic as in P1 - then I'd very much like to hear of it so that I can fix it. P2 already floats a "check tags" advice bubble after merging ways (the warning is far too verbose and is therefore probably ignored by most users, which needs fixing). That could potentially be "check tags and relations" in these cases, but again, users don't read warnings. Fixing rendering is the first half of the proper way to do it; the second half is to have a friendly "mapping quality" palette (in a much less prescriptive way than the existing validator tools) but that's a long-term aim that will take time to do properly. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/3777#comment:3> OpenStreetMap <http://www.openstreetmap.org/> OpenStreetMap is a free editable map of the whole world _______________________________________________ Potlatch-dev mailing list Potlatch-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/potlatch-dev
