country specific turn arrows in Lane and Road attributes mappaint style

[yopaseopor]

I propose a "inside preset" for the style Lanes and Road attributes of Martin Vonwald.
But I have a little "problem", the arrows are not spanish.I can modify the arrows...but as a custom personal and manual thing.

I don't know anything about programming, so my question is simple.Is there any possibility that the style could include some "preset" changes between countries? So I can use your style but "with my arrows" with one-click o similar (like the roadsigns plugin for example)

Thanks for your attention

Which arrows do you mean? Can you please attach a screenshot? How do the spanish ones look like?

[yopaseopor]

Example of spanish arrows and also about differences about shapes.

[yopaseopor]

Yes I can, Here it is an example of the differences of the shapes.Also I can afford you all the files of spanish and catalan arrows.

[Klumbumbus]

Maybe imagic can say somthing about, if he wants to include the spanish arrows into the style as alternative arrow style.

Otherwise maybe a copy of the whole style with the spanish arrows instead of the default arrows, named as "Lane and road attributes - spain version" in Styles would be a soluttion.

I'd prefer to use a country/culture setting, like the stuff done for nodes in default map style :) ("Display street labels" and "Less obtrusive nodes...")

[Don-vip]

Maybe this would require some work in core mappaint however?

Yeah, its a bit hard to choose between "default png", "default svg" and "spain" with one boolean :)

About what arrows are you talking: png or svg?
I don't think, that we can provide different styles for svg arrows, but png should be possible. But please be aware that I intended to remove the png arrows in the future, because it is not possible to display all kind of different combinations. If someone needs the png I will keep the code for them, of course.

If you are talking about png: can you provide a complete set of images in the same format and size as the original arrows? Please take care of empty space around the actual arrows, transparency and correct alignment, otherwise the result will look odd.

Finally I want to add, that the arrows in the style are neither "austrian" nor "german" nor anything-else-kind-of-arrows: they are just arrows. So if it is not extremely important to you, maybe we should keep the style simple.

Never a good idea. Then we have a spanish version and a catalan version and an italian and so on and after about five minutes all of them display something differently, behave differently and contain different errors. Keep it simple ;-)

There's nothing that another colour setting wouldn't solve ;-)

Finally: at the moment I'm a little "overemployed", so please dont expect this to be done tomorrow. (No, also not on monday).

Why?

Of course, a color setting can do. I meant the "official" style settings in the mappaint style dialog, which Don-vip was talking about. They support only boolean atm.

[yopaseopor]

Here it is all the "spanish/catalan arrows" ."Missing" arrows are because doesn't exists in Spain, so I put the "original" ones.In the zip I only include spanish arrows.

@yopaseopor: The more you prepare for the integration, the easier it gets for imagic to do the final steps.

TODO:

• add a prefix the image files, so there is no clash with the original files
• add a new color-option to activate the alternative png-style
• make sure the correct set of images is selected, depending on the value of the new option

@imagic: There is now a build-in detection for right-hand traffic that can be used (see left-right-hand-traffic).

Spanish set of road arrows

prefix es_ added to the image files

[imagic]

Implemented in the latest version. The images for turn markings have been moved to images/png/turn-0/. Your images have been added to images/png/turn-1/. You may select which version to use with the setting integer.png.turn.variant. Don't forget to set boolean.use.svg.for.turning.marking to black; otherwise the embedded svg images are used.

One question: How I can access to select the version? How can I set boolean.use.svg.for.turning.marking ?
Thank you
