Toggling visibility of the UK Cadastral Parcels layer with Urban Eye 3D open crashed JOSM

[josm@…]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Have the OSMUK Cadastral Parcels layer open and visible, and Bing Sat open and visible, but with a lower priroity
2. Open Urban Eye 3D in a detached window
3. Hide visibility of the OSMUK Cadastral Parcels layer

What is the expected result?

I can continue editing. Maybe the ground now appears from Bing Sat in Urban Eye 3D

What happens instead?

JOSM crashes with a null pointer exception (details below)

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Bing Sat layer information

[josm@…]

Looking further at this, it seems that it is not an issue with the OSMUK Cadastral Parcels layer - I can turn that on and off with the Bing Sat layer inactive, and Esri active.

It seems to be when the Bing Sat layer becomes active, probably because the layer info appears to suggest that it has no ID.

[SekeRob]

Got JOSM crashing since UE3D added this layer rendering (weak GPU card). A specific plugin option tickbox to not add these layers below buildings, be it imagery or Carto would be great. Now I have to think of deselecting everything in the layer panel which then gives a black background in the edit window making orientation rather difficult.

[zkir]

Hello josm@... , thank you for this bug report.

Maybe I am missing something obvious, but what this "Bing Sat" layer is? how to activate it?
All I have is "Bing Aerial Imagery" and it does have ID.

Sharing of OSM file of your working area could also help.

[zkir]

Some analysis reveals the following:
The problem has nothing to do with the "OSMUK Cadastral Parcels" layer.
The problem is with self-made(?) bing layer. The plugin needs layers to have IDs.

[josm@…]

Ok, I've been trying to figure out what I've done here!

I have the following in my preferences.xml under preferences -> maps

   <map>
      <tag key='name' value='Bing Sat'/>
      <tag key='type' value='bing'/>
      <tag key='url' value='http://www.bing.com/maps/'/>
      <tag key='customHttpHeaders' value='{}'/>
    </map>

From what I can see, this is no different in theory to the "Bing aerial imagery", but the latter has a lot more options.

I don't know when I added "Bing Sat" (or if it even was me - but I suspect it was). But whenever it was added, it was not by manually modifying the preferences file - it would have been through the UI - which apparently allows them to be added without an ID.

I guess the question going forwards for Urban Eye 3D is can and should the lack of an ID be handled more gracefully.

Without knowing the code, my initial suggestions would be to either skip any imagery without an ID, or generate an ID (random UUID?) for use within Urban Eye 3D. Would these be possible?

[zkir]

I think it could. I've found, that if satellite layer is configured manually (Menu->Edit-Preference->Imagery, one of the plus buttons), it does not have an id. There is no even a field to specify it, so we need to support this case.

This fix is available in the new version ​1.8.1. Please let me know whether it works for you.

[stoecker]

Yes. That's correct. The ID is only for referencing server generated layers (to remove/replace/update). ID is not needed for local layers. Usually the URL is used for these in case a reference is needed.

If I remember right there is also a function which either returns ID or URL.

[zkir]

@stoecker, thank you for the clarification. URL seems to be unique enough, so I can use it :)

[josm@…]

This fix is available in the new version ​1.8.1. Please let me know whether it works for you.

I've not yet been able to download this version via doing a JOSM plugin update, but will keep trying. Perhaps it takes a while to propagate

[stoecker]

1.8.1 is released, but the file contains version 1.8.0 inside. Manifest was not updated ;-)

[zkir]

Manifest was not updated

Shame on me )

[josm@…]

I've tried 1.8.1 now and it looks to have solved the issue. Thank you!
