I can confirm this. With older maps the railway is shown. Maybe in the past the railway was tagged in another way?

You are right, it was tagged as narrow_gauge, this tag is included in the openandromaps tagset.
Anyway, I will add the miniature tag from level 15 on in the next updates.

Some streams are covered by areas (wood, meadow, ...). So the Prießnitz in Dresden at N 51°04.588', E 13°45.701'. (After outcommenting the rules for forest, wood, ... one can see these streams on the map.)

The Layer = -1 issue comes up elsewhere in UK maps. My suggestion for resolving it (in part) is to use a partially transparent fill for areas, both colour and image fills. It seems to work acceptably.

For example:

Code Select Expand

<rule e="way" k="leisure" v="park|garden|golf_course|common|green">
<area fill="#408EC117" stroke="#6fc18e" stroke-width="0.2" />
</rule>

Demonstrating Layer = -1 problems around Milton Keynes (UK) and the resolution with a semi-transparent park area.

Milton Keynes (UK) area: Locus built-in theme

my shot with last uk map and locus hike theme:

[john_percy]

That is better, as the main A5 road is shown, but the more minor link roads are still obscured by the park - most obviously the one coming in from the left of the screenshot to the junction by the cursor. There is another minor road covered by a residential area to the top right of the screenshot as well as the stream running through the park (as well as the woodland in the park, which is a different issue, mentioned earlier in this thread).

No doubt we have problem with rendering ways with Layer<0.   There is internal logic in Mapsforge that print ways in order of Layer tag. I guess that Christian move all tunnels to the base layer ...maybe we can do the same thing.
 
The issue with Milton Keynes is little bit different. The last vector UK map contains special blue polygon which is placed under lands polygons (it should solve "white sea" issue).  Unfortunately missing ways are rendered under this sea polygon...strange. For new generation I'll have to change the layer attribute for mentioned sea polygon.

BTW: do you understand why this way http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/34844315  has layer=-1 ??  (from point of view of OSM data)

I'm sure that's because it goes under the A5 - but I don't think that's the right way to do that.
However, as far as I could see the problems with Milton Keynes were all connected with Layer = -1. If the park or residential area are not rendered, the roads (and stream) are all there, so they are not under the blue polygon.

Exactly ...the bridge of A5 motorway should have Layer=1 but I'm not a OSM geek so maybe I'm wrong.

If the park or residential area are not rendered, the roads (and stream) are all there, so they are not under the blue polygon.

It depends which theme do you use and data of vector map (release date). There is new map with date:  31.1.2013, which contain mentioned blue polygon.  It is rendered with these instructions:

Code Select Expand

<rule e="way" k="*" v="*">
<rule e="way" k="natural" v="sea">
<area fill="#b5d6f1" />
</rule>
<rule e="way" k="natural" v="nosea">
<area fill="#50F3F3F3" stroke="#F3F3F3" stroke-width="1.0" />
</rule>
</rule>

Hello john_percy,

thank you for your themes, i just downloaded and tested them.
Can you please verify this from koksch:

"-- streams
Some streams are covered by areas (wood, meadow, ...). So the Prießnitz in Dresden at N 51°04.588', E 13°45.701'. (After outcommenting the rules for forest, wood, ... one can see these streams on the map.)"

The stream isn´t shown too with your theme(s) as fa as I can see. So we have to make more tags more transparent I think?

I am using a map with release date of 2012-12-10 from http://www.openandromaps.org/en/downloads/europe - where is the later map from?

It is now visible in both versions of my theme. The patterns need to be partially transparent as well, which I had already partly done in the brite version. I attach the updated themes.
My original reason for making the landuse/wood patterns transparent was for areas in the UK where park and woods overlap, which is just what koksch was finding in Dresden area. The problem with this stream is different, Layer = -1.

Unfortunately there is several resources for  vector maps. :?
Mentioned 2013-01-31 map is from Locus store.

[john_percy]

So obvious. I must have looked in the wrong place, because I thought I read a different date there yesterday!

Thank you for the hint to make the patterns transparent too.[attachment=0:15tom7gm]Layer-1_stream.jpg[/attachment:15tom7gm]
But I would propose, that one of the Dresden OSM mapper should verify it. Perhaps koksch?  :mrgreen:
Either the stream is visible, the "layer=-1" tag should be removed, or if the "layer-1" tag is correct, it should not be rendered/shown in the map.

Luckily Google's satellite view was taken in winter. (If you try Bing, all you can see is trees!) The stream is visible if you click to enlarge the pictures.[attachment=0:41hivv2v]dresden2.jpg[/attachment:41hivv2v][attachment=1:41hivv2v]dresden.jpg[/attachment:41hivv2v]
