Re: [Potlatch-dev] [OpenStreetMap] #3587: Tag keys/values should be restricted to 255 characters
Andy Allan wrote: Well, I don't have steps to reproduce I think I'm starting to. This is _really_ weird. Obviously this isn't the only way to trigger it, but try this: 1. Open a Potlatch 2 instance. Select a way. Select 'Advanced'. Delete some tags with the 'X' button. 2. In another tab - yes, really - open a page with another Flex SWF. I've found http://www.trynull.com/2010/02/11/programatically-select-a-datagrid-cell-in-flex/ works. 3. Go back to the P2 tab. Start selecting ways. It's stuck. The reason it's stuck is that (in TagGrid.mxml), somehow editedItemPosition has gained a value, despite no cell being edited. I put a trace(outerDocument.editedItemPosition) into line 53 of TagGrid.mxml. In normal operation, clicking 'X' would result in null in the Flash log; when it's stuck, it results in [Object object]. You can unstick it, very simply, by selecting a cell for editing. That sets editedItemPosition again properly and all is well with the world. So we're triggering a Flex bug of some sort. It may, perhaps, have something to do with bEditedItemPositionChanged not being set to true somewhere in DataGrid.as. I wonder if there's any event on DataGrid that we can listen for and then nullify editedItemPosition manually when it fires... cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/Potlatch-dev-OpenStreetMap-3587-potlatch2-advanced-tab-crash-tp6172959p6203607.html Sent from the Potlatch mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Potlatch-dev mailing list Potlatch-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/potlatch-dev
Re: [Potlatch-dev] Crash with custom vector.xml
NopMap wrote: It used to work with the style sheet simply in the same directory as p2. Indeed; we moved it because the p2 directory was getting horribly busy and disorganised. Does it need all stylesheets in a subdir? The main stylesheet is still working from the main dir. If you expressly specify a stylesheet URL, it can be anywhere, of course. But the hardcoded default stylesheets all now point to stylesheets/ (principally stylesheets/potlatch.css and stylesheets/gpx.css). Is there any way to find out about such changes in the structure before P2 crashes? P2 is advancing at quite a pace but right now we simply don't have enough developers to write extensive documentation for every change. We don't even have complete asdocs for the full code yet. Things like this will stabilise over time, and indeed are doing so, but the best advice for now is to watch the changelog and the relevant wiki pages, and above all, ask here if you're not sure. cheers Richard ___ Potlatch-dev mailing list Potlatch-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/potlatch-dev
Re: [OSM-dev] Develop a Simple Mapping Tool for Mobile Phones
Hi Nic! No, I haven't looked at it. I have just checked it out. Doesn't seem much. It is a trivial web based app. They are using phonegap for interfacing platform API, therefore it is not a native Android application. phonegap has API for accessing camera, PGS sensor and compass, though, so the further development of this project could be considered. But in the short term there is no image processing necessary. Simply show the user a crosshair. He can then take multiple shots of an object to collect it's height and location. I trust you that for this particular application no image processing is required. I am not familiar that much with the triangulation process. Nevertheless it could be interesting to have a look into http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/Android in order to support the long term ideas. This though is not a part of phonegap therefore requires a navtive app or the processing must take place on a server. You have offered help in triangulation in one of the prev emails. A couple links would be awesome for a quick initialization. Thanks in advance!

Re: [OSM-dev] [GSoC] Mentors requirements
I am pondering that right now. On one hand I would prefer to see a mentor be someone that is familiar with the OSM project and can give advice and feedback about how to work with the OSM community and its tools, but on the other hand I am excited to see completely unrelated and new people contribute to OSM. Currently I'm leaning towards allowing external mentor/student pairs *as long as they participate with the GSoC process completely*. I would be much more inclined to accept a student or mentor with no previous work in the OSM community if they provided a thorough plan for how they would integrate their work into the existing OSM community and continue to participate in OSM after GSoC completed. 2011/3/24 Matthias Meißer dig...@arcor.de Hi there, I added a few ideas and I'm intersted in working on a OSM4Games project.

[OSM-dev] osm2psql: minor hstore rework
4YI, i just commited a small change to the hstore functionality in osm2pqgsl. Until now any tag has been added to the hstore column regardless if this key had an exclusive column or not. This has been changed now. For people who really need all tags in the hstore column an additional commandline switch has been added to restore the original behaviour (do these people exist?). While doing this I also noticed that the special tag z_order has been added to the hstore column by mistake. It is now hardcoded to ignore z_order when adding tags to the hstore column. The rework should not change anything for people who exclusively use a hstore column (no other tag columns). Peter Körners hstore stuff should also be unaffected.

Hi Folks, version 0.2 of the Open Source Routing Machine (OSRM) has just been released.

There is a wiki, forum and bug-tracker available at the project's website in case you have any questions and/or bugs. Thanks to the fine people who contributed to this release.
