Theme developing question

There are two LCN relations and one RCN relation. Mentioned two LCN (blue dots) relations are visible only as one line - this is known limitation of vector maps. However RCN route (red dots) is visible

... You should be able to arrange a different offset for different colours so they don't overlap, either by including a blank space in the image (png only, I think) or by use of "dx".

This doesn't work.According to http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:map_tools:vector_maps_theme_config#linesymbol

atributte dx and dy is not supported for linesymbol.
So I guess there is no solution at the moment.

FWIW, the use of "dx" is undocumented for lineSymbol but works (I've tried it out), and the inclusion of a blank space in a png can also be used to shift the image along.

Strange, that´s what I see:

@jusc
Could you please check that you have the latest Poland map, please? Check the history of RCN route - it is quite new.

[jusc]

Oh, yes you are right. After upgrading Poland map (from 31.03.14) to latest it´s ok now. Beginner failure! 


@Wojtas,

I made some tests with "parallel" lines:





The problem is, that you have to define thick lines with "bold" colours before you render the ways.
My settings  p. E. zoom 15 -16
icn 10  #FF0000 (red)
ncn 8  #0055FF (blue)
rcn 6  #FF6A00 (orange)
lcn 4  #00FFFF (light blue)

Ok So I managed to make some "parallel" dots (testing) but I get empty spaces beetween like on the attached pic:




Here are my rules:

   <rule e="way" k="network" v="lcn">
      <lineSymbol src="file:/rower/blue_dot.png" repeat="true" repeat-gap="0dp" force-draw="1" scale="0.5" scale-icon-size="16,1.2" />     
   </rule>
   <rule e="way" k="network" v="rcn">
      <lineSymbol src="file:/rower/red_dot.png" repeat="true" repeat-gap="0dp" force-draw="1" scale="0.5" scale-icon-size="16,1.2" />     
   </rule>
   <rule e="way" k="network" v="ncn">
      <lineSymbol src="file:/rower/yellow_dot.png" repeat="true" repeat-gap="0dp" force-draw="1" scale="0.5" scale-icon-size="16,1.2" />     
   </rule>         

Force draw doesn't seem to work.Any chance to make it force?

[jusc]

These are my experiences too, symbols are not able to render complete lines. So this is not the solution yet.

[Wojtas82]

Well in this case I think I will stay with the lines.Thanks jusc.

I'm struggling with different widths of bicyle routes.
Here's a part of a code from Elevelo Cycling L. It works fine with andromaps but doesn't work on Original Locus maps and Popej maps....http://www.gmaptool.eu/pl/content/locus-polska-osm Nothing shows up....
Can someone explain why and what should I change?  Thanks in advance

[jusc]

it works until zoom level 13 with Locus maps. What is the diffrence?

[Wojtas82]

Because there are different rules for icn/rcn/lcn etc. for zoom levels 0-13. I would like to see different route widths for wider roads like primary etc. and smaller for paths, tracks....

[popej]

On my maps marked trails don't have tags "highway", thats why they won't be visible with conditions that you have included into your style.

I add artificial tag route=hiking|foot|bicycle|mtb|ski|sled|piste|ferry (maybe more, values are taken from relation type).

Edit: I add new ways for marked trails to OSM data, there should be an original way with tag highway= at the same place.

[Wojtas82]

That would be great if you could do that Popej. But maybe there is a workaround?

[popej]

I"m afraid that if I add "highway" to new ways, then Locus will draw multiple roads one over another. I could add next artificial tag to marked trail, which could describe used road, but then no style except yours would understand this.

[Wojtas82]

I understand. Right now the part of the code I posted earlier is understood only by andromaps...So there is probably some different combination used...I'm not exactly sure how it was done yet.
