The wiki says that hamlet is "<1000". The only place possibly smaller is suburb, but no population is given. There should be some place types below hamlet. For instance, an actual hamlet would have the same priority for rendering as a mobile home park (as above) or any number of subdivisions in said hamlet. The subdivisions of said hamlet should be rendered only at high zoom levels and in a smaller font than the hamlet, but currently the leftmost one is most likely to be rendered and they will all be rendered in the same font. 1) Should this be fixed? (YES!) 2) How do we fix it? - Val - _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
