IIRC the slippymaps all render using Mercator. ------Original Message------ From: Richard Weait Sender: [email protected] To: [email protected] ReplyTo: [email protected] Subject: Re: [OSM-newbies] JOSM editing area stretched Sent: Jan 12, 2010 5:48 PM 2010/1/12 Joosep-Georg Järvemaa <[email protected]>: > Hello, > > > I have attached an image to show how picture in the JOSM editing area > is not displayed correctly. > > Any idea what am I doing wrong? You aren't necessarily doing anything wrong. Take a look at your projection setting (in >>edit >> preferences) and see if you like Mercator better. _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
