Im new so please forgive my ignorance. Im using the iD editor on the web site. I just added the corner gas station as an exercise to learn what I'm doing. I noticed that at the closest zoom level it didnt show up, I assumed I had done something wrong. Then I zoomed out and it showed up, two zoom levels, and then disappeared again. I understand that not all detail can be shown at all levels but what controls it and where? asked 06 Jun '15, 22:23 alpinekid |
(i) If you didn't see what you entered it's possible that the tiles haven't bee updated yet, and/or your browser has cached the old tiles. You should see the new data within 20 mins. (ii) The main map style is in this stylesheet: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto answered 08 Jun '15, 09:27 rorym |
Sometimes different zoom levels take longer to update than others, so if you give it a while it might appear on more zoom levels. Though obviously there will be a point where you you zoom out far enough it will no longer be shown. There can also be problems where icons would overlap so only one is shown. answered 07 Jun '15, 03:44 YoP |
Stylesheets determines details of the content that should be shown on a map. Currently, the main map that you see at osm.org is displayed using the CartoCSS Stylesheet. answered 06 Jun '15, 23:55 yogi_ks Thanks I'll look up carto
