Hi,

all themes were removed because were created for LoMaps gen 3 and weren't compatible with gen 4. But some authors were preparing new version compatible with LoMaps gen 4. @john_percy @karlchick do you think is it possible to publish your themes in Locus Store?

Troubles & Questions / Re: Pay LM4 with LoCoins
September 06, 2023, 10:16:15
@alick
...good question. To be honest we aren't very familiar with Google Play Credit but according to https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/6080850 it may be possible to buy also subscription with Google Play Credit

Check if your country allows you to pay for your subscription using your Google Play balance/credit. Google Play should prioritize your GP balance on your next renewal. This means you don't need to take any additional steps, you can keep your subscription active and Google Play will use the balance for your next renewal.

I would rather suggest setting the Google Play balance as the default payment method (Google Play > Menu > Tap Payments & subscriptions and then Payment methods and then Google Play balance.)

Anyway, you can contact us in November and we can refund your payment if the GP balance is not used, and we would focus on dealing with locoins...

Hi,

I'm sorry for the late reply. Finally, it's some time to focus on the map again :)
@karlchick
- railway=miniature added
- natural=mud - thank you for the report - my mistake. I added the natural=mud only into POINT section and WAYS were omitted (will be fixed in the next LoMaps)
- leisure=nature_reserve - I'm testing the latest LoMaps and seems to be OK (would you please check it again)
- icn&ncn available from zl=8 and rcn available from zl=10

This icon represents a general gate (without type specification). I can understand that city areas are overcrowded with these symbols but they are useful for cyclists (especially in the UK).

Anyway, you found a bug because offline LoMaps use the old symbol for the gateway. For online LoMaps we have prepared a new and less distinctive symbol. We have fixed it in offline LoMaps as well. It's still not ideal, but hopefully, it's better than before. See the attached screenshotYou cannot view this attachment.

Well, could I add "location=underground" to LoMaps for the next release if that helps?

Dobrý den,
bohužel se nám dokončení podmíněného stylování poněkud protáhlo, ale v příští verzi by již mělo být k dispozici.
Děkuji za pochopení

@john_percy ahh I'm sorry. I thought that everybody here is a Gold member ;) I'll discuss it with @Menion and I think we can add some maps again on GD as before.

The naming convention for "poi" theme is nameOfBaseMapTheme_layerId.poi.xml
When the layerId id of layer is defined in <stylemenu> of the base map theme.

Anyway, only the internal theme supports this special "poi" themes. It is not yet fully implemented for alternative themes, but there are plans to support it...

Hi,

you're right. Maps for these regions are really missing. To be honest I can't remember why we haven't added prepared them. Maybe because of the size of map or unsufficient map scale.
Anyway, I'll contact our BRMB and find out more info if we can add these regions...

Thanks, Petr

@john_percy Thank you for your report/feedback
You're right we ignore mentioned proposed or disused tags. I'll improve it.
Anyway, do you know more about tag type=disused_route ? I can't find any official documentation for this tags. I'm also wonder if there are more disused combinations...

- lm_highway=construction is really missing and will be improved in the next version of LoMaps

Mapsforge now supports any "key" that can be used as a text value. So you can, for example, display the value of the key "highway"
<pathText k="highway" font-style="normal" font-size=....
Anyway, you are right - "osmc_text" and "osmc_text_length" are really missing in the latest LoMaps. The latest version of LoMaps was released in version 4 which doesn't contain variable "tag-values" (%s, %f)

Anyway, I generated a new version of LoMaps (see attached map of Monaco) as version 5. The mentioned "osmc_text" and "osmc_text_length" tags should be available in the data. But I think I found some bug in the Mapsforge generator, where the tag-value variable is not included in the data if there is another tag with the same value. The value of "osmc_text" is often the same as the value of "ref", and it seems that in such a situation the "osmc_text" is not added to the data. I need to test this with @Menion in more detail and debug the data in the map tiles.


For this reason, I edited one tourist way with "osmc_text" value and set value "03 testtest" (avaialable in attached monaco map). You can test it with your theme...

PathText to display the text "03 testtest"
<pathText k="osmc_text" dy="2" font-style="bold" font-size="16" fill="#e67400" stroke="#ffffff" stroke-width="2.5" priority="1000"/>

As you probably know, Locus used a custom implementation of the Mapsforge vector map rendering for LoMaps vector maps. There were several attributes that the original Mapsforge did not support.

As of May 2023, LoMaps is being released as Mapsforge V4 and the old V3 themes cannot be used for the new LoMaps V4. The new theme must be prepared to work with the new LoMaps V4.
 
We have prepared a simple script to help transform an existing Locus V3 theme into a Mapsforge V4 theme 

Script and simple doc are available at https://github.com/asamm/lomaps-mapsforge/tree/main/theme-v3-to-v4-converter

Please note that the script does not convert the entire theme 1:1.
Manual work will still be required, but should save time when editing attributes.
