UnifiedMap VTM: Remove pseudo-3D display of buildings (or make it configurable) #15723
Comments
I strongly prefer the 3D look of buildings. Please don't remove it completely. Making it configurable would be fine for me though. |
Don't like the 3D effect, too, cause buildings are way harder to recognize. Which can perhaps be solved by drawing the roofs with a darker shading (already made some attempts to achieve this, but no success yet), but taking into account that there's no real information gain plus most probably higher CPU/GPU load for rendering, I would vote for 2D only, too, although an extra setting would of course be fine, too, but if so, I would suggest to set the default to false. |
Clever wording - cause "normal" is subject to evolutionary shifting. ;) Nevertheless, just in case: I would prefer something more concrete like "3D buildings" or perhaps even "3D effects". :) |
Great! |
PR #15731 adds such an option to VTM offline maps' theme options. Additional formatting for 3D mode (as shown in screenshot above) should go into a separate PR (and maybe differentiate between 2D / 3D (as today) / 3D (extended, as shown above). |
Personally I find map display of buildings with UnifiedMap VTM confusing and harder to process than with old Mapsforge. I found out that there's a way to configure 2D/3D, so I propose to switch back to 2D (or make it configurable, if someone prefers 3D):
