YahooPlugin does not work

[cmuelle8]

Shows red background "error" on activation.

Can anyone confirm this?

used url in preferences is: ​http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wmsplugin/YahooDirect.html?

webkit-image is installed and working

thx

[cmuelle8]

Btw, do I still need a working webkit-image binary since the introduction of imagery plugin?

[cmuelle8]

--> I do, I'll update the ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/WMSPlugin#Gentoo_webkit-image_ebuild

maybe webkit-image.ebuild should get a bug on bugs.gentoo.org..

I fear that it will be removed one day, since it is on the obsolete WMSPlugin wiki page

Greetings..

Ok, I noticed an ebuild in the help page for the imagery plugin as well - but it still has the dodoc entry that will not work (since README is gone in svn)

Next thing - while webkit-image compiled fine and downloads stuff from yahoo it does not assemble the tiles in josm properly. I can see the image in a square, but it seems to be smaller than the space reserved for it. It aligns top left and does not fill the gray area square reserved for it. Also, the images do not align to the data (I'm not talking about the 5-10m offset due to yahoo inaccuracy - the offset is huge compared to that..)

You're sure you use webkit? This looks more like the gnome-downloader issue.

[cmuelle8]

yes, sure:

webkit-image {0} entry on wms/tms settings tab in prefs checked..

Hmm, It seems the size detection of the image URL is broken.

What webkit-image did you use? The source is here: ​http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/editors/josm/webgrabber/

There is a GTK and a QT version which are different. Also You can try the gnome-web-photo tool and/or the fixed variant using netpbm.

All these tools aren't 100% exact. You only need to find one which works for you.

this is the source i used.

i tried qt version only. have not tried gtk or gnome-web-photo yet..

but qt version used to work well

gnome-web-photo works, but it is extreeeeemly slow..
you have to use

 gnome-web-photo --mode=photo --format=png {0} /dev/stdout

in wms/tms prefs for it to work, still have not tried webkit-image-gtk

are there any [new] options to the new qt version of the webgrabber that might have broken, old, working behavior?

Try disabling "page->setViewportSize(QSize(1280,1024));". Does this help?

[cmuelle8]

thx, your suggestion works like a charm

• can you update the webgrabber qt source in osm-dev svn accordingly?

it's speedy and very usable as it used to be, again..
