Dear all, We are currently working on changes in the rendering of landcover labels in openstreetmap-carto, the rendering that is used for the default map on www.openstreetmap.org.
Before we roll out these changes, we would like to ask you for your feedback. A demo which allows you to compare the old and new rendering can be found here: http://tile.paulnorman.ca/demo/landcover-labels.html. We currently only have some areas in Northern America loaded on the demo server. Changes to the rendering include: - All rendered landcover tags now have their name rendered. - The minimum zoom level of labels is now defined based on the rendered size of the area - Font size now also depends on the rendered size - Landuse labels are now rendered oblique, to easier visually tell them apart from village and POI labels. - All labels are rendered in a colour similar to the landuse they belong to. More details can be found on Github: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/941. We look forward to hear your opinion on the changes. Feel free to give your comments either as a reply to this message, or on the Github issue. -- Matthijs _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
