rendering of highway=platform; railway=platform #1571
Comments
Author: itschytoo Sorry, I meant: "render it like highway=pedestrian" (not highway=living_street). |
Author: osm[at]petschge.de It's not hard (actually I already have a patch that does the trick), but I see lot's of problems with that: 1.) The street the bus is using is rendered unrealistic wide and obscures the platform. 2.) Mappers would be very tempted to map the platform in the wrong location to get around problem #1. 3.) The ref is most likely longer than just "4" |
Author: bob[at]cakebox.net Replying to [comment:2 osm[at]petschge.de]:
Why not render platforms above roads? At least the casing, maybe the core too.
Most places I've seen the platforms are just numbered, you seldom get too many digits... |
Author: osm[at]petschge.de take your pick from the style examples... |
Author: itschytoo Hi. If we have an area, it would probably be no problem, as it shares its border with the highway. If the platform is a way, and its real near to the highway, it would probably be enough if only a small part is visible. Its mainly something for high zoom levels anyway. But especially train stations and larger bus stops would look much more lively. |
Author: itschytoo In afterthought: that "in-between"-example might also be neat. How does it work? |
Author: bob[at]cakebox.net in-between is my favourite. And I agree a darker grey core may be a good idea. |
Author: osm[at]petschge.de basically by handling platform after the highway casings are drawn and before the highway cores are drawn. Making it a bit darker wouldn't be hard. |
Author: itschytoo Thanks. Nearly perfect. |

I'm using highway=platform to model larger bus_stop-platforms.
This is in analogus to railway=platform.
Both are not currently rendered on the map.
I propose to have these two combinations rendered like highway=living_street (i.e. darker grey).
This should be done for way, area and node (in the last case just a small circle).
Please also display the contents of the "ref=''"-tag, as it would contain the platforms number (like "''ref=9 3/4").
Thank you.
