Hi Andreas,

 

It works fine with my layers and the OTF on.

 

Including some default services would be great, but unfortunately there are 
some restrictions in using the service. 

 

See the original discussions here:

Cheers

Saber

Subject: Re: [Qgis-developer] Questions around xyz tile server connections in 
master 2

 

So I found out that http://tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png 
<http://tile.openstreetmap.org/%7bz%7d/%7bx%7d/%7by%7d.png>  seems to work.

However, if I add this OSM layer to my Swiss QGIS project (EPSG:21781) - the 
swiss data seems to appear in the atlantic, west of "Guinea Ecuatorial" ;-(

Hi,

I have a couple of questions around the new "Tileserver" layer support in QGIS 
desktop to be released with 2.18. I think the main commit is 
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/f5b657db19eda7e72e6ed34eb7fe333c156acad0 - 
right?

First, let me thank you a lot for this -  Martin and Lutra Consulting for 
developing/sponsoring it!

-----------------

However, I wonder if the usability of the newly added tilserver is already good 
enough? Or at least I think it is not really obvious how to use it.

1. How can add a new connection to a tile server? Is the browser the only way? 
If yes, I hope that an additional entry to Layer --> Add Layer menu could be 
added - all other layer types can be added this way.

2. What is a correct URL? This is really hard to find out. F.e. I went to 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_servers and tried to copy some URLs and 
failed about finding the correct syntax. I added the layer to the project --> 
nothing happened. No display, no error message. Maybe because the projections 
do not match? - or would QGIS reproject on the fly?

3. Can we add some popular tile map server URLs by default - similar to the 
QuickMapServices plugin?

4. How can one edit an existing tile server connection - e.b. change title or 
URL? Currently, one can only delete and re-add it.

-----------------

Thank you for your reply,

Andreas
