After I edited and added some roads, they appear great while zoomed out, but as you zoom in they look like they have been cut and are offset. Then when I try and correct it, everything appears fine in the edit window. asked 30 Nov '11, 20:58  bcheney |

Believe what the editor (or the "data view") tells you. Everything else - the map view - is a potentially time-delayed representation, and what you see on the map may not longer be the case. I assume that in your case, someone else has repaired the problem, but the map has not updated yet. See "How often does the main mapnik map get updated?" for a detailed explanation of the map update process. answered 30 Nov '11, 21:29  Frederik Ramm ♦ |
Nor all zoom levels are updated at the same time. If your road crosses a tile edge and the next tile is still to be rendered then there could be a disjointed appearance until they all catch up with each other. When you go back to your edit window you are seeing the information before it is all fully rendered. answered 30 Nov '11, 21:33  gumpa |
Thanks for the answers.
