Absolutely. I've been wrestling with the best way to do it for a
while, since it's not a one-to-one mapping (i.e. you could use any
editor anywhere with the background layer) but I'll hook something up.

Something changed a while ago in P2, which broke the node selection. I
haven't managed to dig into it yet though, but hopefully either I'll
get there or someone else will beat me to it.

Cheers,

Ctrl+Shift-click (Linux) / Alt-click (Windows/Mac) - converts a vector
layer object.[1]

This copies the feature from the background layer into the main editing layer.

[Talk-GB] Updates to the England Cycling Data project

2012-11-08 Thread Andy Allan
Hi All,

I've made some updates to the software that powers the England Cycling
Data[1] project (i.e updates to snapshot-server).

* All the capitalisation bugs (e.g. Lane -> lane) should be taken care of
* Each area now has an overall completion percentage, and these are
shown on the list of areas too:

http://gravitystorm.dev.openstreetmap.org/cnxc-snapshot/projects

* Progress bars are now coloured, with the traditional
red/yellow/green motivational colours :-)

http://gravitystorm.dev.openstreetmap.org/cnxc-snapshot/projects/1

* There's now a trademarked "shonky map" to show a random selection of
things that need examining, e.g.

http://gravitystorm.dev.openstreetmap.org/cnxc-snapshot/projects/1/map

These maps still need some more developing, but should be especially
useful when tracking down the remaining features in a particular area,
rather than having to page through the lists of nodes and ways
manually.

There's also been some other behind-the-scenes development on the
snapshot-server software, making it slightly easier to install and
improving compatibility with PostGIS 2.0. If you are planning your own
data-merging project, feel free to get in touch or jump in with ideas
for the software on github[2]. Thanks to Paul Norman for his bug
reports over the last few weeks - he's been experimenting with just
this situation.

Cheers,
Andy
