Hi Jeroen,
2009/12/21 jeroen De Dauw <jeroen_dedauw(a)yahoo.com>om>:
I'd like to announce the 0.5 release of Maps [0],
the extension to be used
to display the images and tiles from the WF servers. As I earlier posted on
this list, this version supports static map display [1] and error handling,
and therefore now has all functionality SlippyMap had. You can find several
examples of static maps on my wiki [2].
While I cannot say anything about the specific questions you raised, I
noticed a typo: in the activatable maps in
http://wiki.bn2vs.com/wiki/Static_map, it says "OpenStreetMaps" with
an "s" at the end - which is wrong :)
I cannot play with the code easily, so I cannot check if it supports
overlays that I would need for
http://toolserver.org/~cmarqu/hikebike.html - check the hillshading
and "by night" layers.
Does it have any special support for printing? Because the attribution
for OSM should then be changed from a clickable "CC-by-SA" link to the
fully written URL. And I guess the attribution should be shown by
default. Some people in OSM are a bit overzealous about that
unfortunately...
Cheers
Colin
