Paths are appearing in some layers, but not others, so assume that means it cannot be a caching problem. And they were added 2 weeks ago.

Must be something other than tags inhibiting visibility. _______________________________________ Tony Heher +27 82 654 5582 On Mon, May 31, 2021 at 2:41 PM Glen Wilson <[email protected]> wrote: > Assuming this is not a caching problem as described in an earlier thread, > it's possible the other paths in your comparison have different tags that > those the layer will choose to include.
