Without the "Raw signatures" option, the "Signature" field will only modify the visible part of your signature, that is, the part after the "|". And it will convert all special characters, such as "[", "]" and "|". By the way: The wiki doesn't distinguish between the pagenames User:username and User:Username anyway, so I don't think you even need to modify the link target. I hope this helps you solve your problem. Tobias Knerr ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] HELP: signing problem on wiki ( different user-name wiki <-> osm-server)
Hi Please can anyone help me. I have different user-names on osm-wiki and osm-server. (only capital as first letter and not) The link on my wiki-user-page works well. Only signing does not. It should be: [User:username|Username]]. In stead it turns out: [[User:Username|[[User:username|Username Thanks Colliar ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

In German cities we have 90-100% of the roads, but it's not that good in remote rural areas.

Re: [OSM-talk] Isn't it time for a higher zoom level?
Richard, thanks for mentioning Kosmos :) Yes, Kosmos draws OSM data on-the-fly and it supports continuous zoom levels (I've limited it up to zoom level 18 because of some .NET drawing engine problems on higher zooms). There are two drawbacks however: it runs on Windows only and the latest released version is getting old. But I'm working (hard?) on the v3 version which I hope will be easier to use and more powerful. And if I get the time, I'll try to make it Linux (and Mac)-friendly.

Indeed I followed the webkit-image qt method and presto - it works. Thanks for the tip ! Here is the method I used : apt-get install build-essential libqt4-dev libqt4-webkit pkg-config svn co http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/editors/josm/plugins/wmsplugin cd wmsplugin make webkit-image sudo cp webkit-image /usr/local/bin/ Then in JOSM, in Edit/Preferences select 'webkit-image {0}' as the command for the plugin. Then it works. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
