Tracks and named Waypoints are rendered when using the new experimental GPX Track upload feature. Level of details depends on the auto-calculated zoom level, so for showing buildings at low zoom levels the underlying stylesheets would need to be tweaked. Or you could try the "Schwarz-Plan" overlay (last in the list), that should render buildings as filled black rectangles at all zoom levels as far as I remember ... so you'd have the base map without buildings but then the overlay would draw them on top. > (2) I didn't understand this: >> 20x30km isn't that big really.

In the "Share" menue -- opened by the third Icon from the bottom -- you can export the current view in PNG, PDF, SVG ... _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
