#9270 reopened enhancement

Show icons on map also for areas and lines, not only for nodes

Reported by: mkoniecz Owned by: team
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Internal mappaint style Version:
Keywords: area icon Cc: skyper, Klumbumbus

Description

It would make tags accessible without clicking on objects.

Current display encourages duplication - saving information both as area and node and/or discourages tagging things like parkings, theaters, shops as areas.

And it is nearly impossible to notice untagged or unproperly tagged area among multiple others, I am not going to click every single one.

In other words I would prefer here googlelike style: https://maps.google.com/?ll=50.069474,19.932726&spn=0.00089,0.002642&t=m&z=19 - note that hospital is marked both as area and by icon.

example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/118717694

It would preferably to see not it as blue building, but as blue building with icon of car_repair shop (like it would happen in case of duplicate tagging - as area and as node)

To clarify - this ticket is about doing this in default map style, #10176 is about making icon on area possible to display using JOSM mappaint (what may or may not be used in default style).

Status: newclosed

This feature is not supported at the moment, so it cannot be used in the default style. Please reopen when #10176 is fixed.

This is now implemented based on #10176, see [11670]. Feel free to experiment ;-)

Feel free to provide feedback. Especially on how to give users feedback on the difference between an area icon (not selectable) and a node icon (selectable).

comment:9 by stoecker, 7 years ago

Making area icons selectable would be fine BTW. That could also solve the issue, that e.g. turn-restriction icons aren't selectable. My idea in the past for these was to have a cache containing positions of currently displayed non-clickable icons and the related objects.

It would be great to use this feature in the default style. However first the display of text together with icon must be fixed (considering also external mappaint styles, which e.g. adjust the size of the text, like Coloured Streets). currently icon and overlap each other.

comment:12 by Klumbumbus, 7 years ago

Another problem I see is that e.g. an landuse area can be very large or you are zoomed in far and you see an icon and have no clue where it belongs to. So maybe the icon should be hidden if more than 25% (?) of the area is outside the visible mapview. Maybe we can find a better rule.

Replying to Klumbumbus:

We could start with areas that can also be mapped as a point, like restaurant and school. These are smaller and less problematic. Another idea would be to highlight the area when you hover the mouse over the area icon.

comment:14 by michael2402, 7 years ago

We have the same problem with the label. Currently, we simply display it every time.

I don't think that we should hardcode this into josm. It would be best to allow for some sort of pseudo selector that allows to select elements that are bigger than x. We could then use this to

The problem I see is that our MapCSS implementation does not have such a feature at the moment. If we add it, we should also be prepared to add :hover / :active. This will require some work on the style computation side.
