Subject: Re: [OSM-newbies] osmrenderer shows coastline land/ocean inversion,regardless of way direction



Thanks David,

That trick worked as you said.
It was a bit tedious as the 'island' also comprises of several
satellite islands, it serves my purpose though :-)

then re-order by instructions

1) search in JOSM for all ways tagged as natural = coastline, and en mass change to natural = land
2) draw the big box and tag as natural = coastline

It shouldn't take more than a minute to do :)



I wonder how the t...@h osmrenderer deals with the problem?

Thanks again,
Craig

Not so much a bug, but I believe this is something which if difficult for Osmarender to deal with.

effectively you have a circle (OK the island may not be a circle but you get my drift), and you want everything outside of it to be blue, but I'm not aware of any SVG to do such a thing.

I think the solution is in JOSM draw a big square round the island and tag it as natural = coastline, and then change the real coastline tags to natural = land
