Hi John, what is this one about? "Without ducks"?

@Tapio The "duckless" version was a special request with nature reserves shown differently, without the repeating duck overlay.

The Velocity theme has been modified to show lakes and other bodies of water earlier. I've also made a few other tweaks.

Hello,
i really liked your theme with attention to detail and I look at it carefully when I make my theme. Here are the small bugs in the display that I noticed.

@settler
Could you please tell me whereabouts those screenshots are of? Also, which map are you using?
Voluntary usually renders rail bridges correctly (see my screenshots).
My guess is this is connected with incorrect use of layer tags in the mapping itself but it may be possible to get round this. Do other themes render those locations correctly?

Screenshots taken in Cruiser, OAM map.
Coordinates - 55.42993, 36.86077 and 55.43695, 36.85403

It seems you are right, there is no layer=1 tag on bridges, i am fixed it. Thank you :)

Thanks.
It looks like I can force railway bridges over roads to render correctly without the correct layer tag (easy change) and also railway over railway (but I'm not sure if the added complexity to allow for incorrect mapping is merited).
Screenshot is of your location with modified theme.

The modified theme is available from:

The new LoMaps now available in the Locus Store are much more mainstream Mapsforge but require updated themes. A preliminary version of Voluntary is now available for download from the link below. Please delete your old version in Locus first.

I would like to say that I really like your theme!
Would it be possible to show the trail markings as graphics, similar to the elevate theme?

@Saturo I can pencil it in on my to do list. It would be a significant feature in those countries that support that kind of trail marking.

In Settler theme it was pretty good, but he removed it. Probably wants perfection. There were always cases where the text like "A3" did not show up. No matter what you do, like using display="always" for the text.

So, good luck 😜

I already see problems in Elevate, screenshot.

At present I'm concentrating on unifying the display of the Voluntary theme for both LoMaps and maps from OAM.

Edit: OAM seems to render waymarked *nodes* while Lomaps renders the waymarked *ways*.

@Saturo @Tapio
You may like to investigate the new Voluntary beta that shows OSMC waymarking for both the latest LoMaps and maps from OAM.
See screenshots (Hint: LoMaps has more detail on the name of the route). Turn on "waymarks" in the Hiking style for waymarked symbols and routes.
Waymark symbols with text do not display the text with LoMaps and sometimes don't display it with OAM maps either. Waymark symbols are simplified at low zooms with both sets of maps. With both LoMaps and OAM only one set of symbols is shown if two or more routes run concurrently.
The waymarked route is also indicated by a string of squares alongside the route in the correct OSMC colour. LoMaps show the colours of all concurrent routes, OAM shows just one of the routes.
LoMaps and OAM seem to have different subsets of the possible waymarks.
I'm not impressed by the number of lines of code needed for this addition however - over 1500! There ought to be a better way.
The beta may display incorrectly on LoMaps where bike, hike and MTB routes run together. And most likely a few other places I've not tracked down.

Oh thanks, didn't notice yoour posting.

Remember when we discussed those annoying grid patterns which are somewhat related to restricted areas, but show up elsewhere as well at certain ZL? I have not 100% tested it out, but was able to remove them in another theme. It is either a matter of transparency, but for sure also the use of "stroke" in "Area fill".

Example.
Before: <area fill="#D0FFFFEF" stroke="#C3C3C3" stroke-width="0.2" />
After: <area fill="#FFFFFFEF" />

IDK if stroke is used here. Still learning. But I got rid of those very thin lines. Might be worth a look for you.
