Hi Pirates,

We hope you’re all doing well.

We’ve released a new WME prod v2.159 :rocket:

Below you can find a summary of the release.

Update: the team has released a hot fix, v2.159-2 for the bug that segments were not saved (disappeared), when panning the map.

Known issues:

  1. The new left panel: blank left panel field is displayed for the logged out user.
  2. UI: Unknown button is shown in case of multiple segments selection
  3. Segment: in the Routing section: No spaces in the message about the “Routing road type”.
  4. The new left panel: Map shifts a bit when toggling the drawer or when we select the node in case we use the street view option.

We look forward to hearing your feedback! :face_with_monocle:

Thank you,

Default setting for UR filtering is WITH description, I suggest BOTH as the default and let the editor change it to With/Without/Both
Over 90% of URs are without descriptions

Some really good bug fixes in this release. Thank you! :slight_smile:

I’m having trouble creating map comment areas. When I begin to create one and click/drag the screen to extend it, the operation for adding a map comment ends. I have to begin it again with the same behavior happening. I am able to create map comment areas just as long as I don’t click/drag the screen

Here is a screen capture showing it:

That’s been reported as a bug (here and here for those in beta WME).

Hello @Nataliia_Staff

Please see the following (I’m using Firefox without any script):

  • On the new issue tracker, the on/off button is shown too much to the right … Also, if possible, try to put it on the same line of the text (at the present moment, it is shown slightly on top)

  • to make coherent, the “both” button on URs and MSs should be put first. Also, the “Open” button is not in the same order on URs and MSs

  • When we select the pt_PT language, the localized text for “Anytime” - “Qualquer momento” - is not fully shown.Is possible to implement a kind of tip when we hoover the mouse on top of it to shown the full text?

Best regards

I can reproduce it without draging the map. And it happens not every time. I don’t know why it works sometimes.

Hi,

I can’t add any new road segment to the map anymore. After a few nodes the new road disappears. Quite strange.
Somehow related to this new release?

PS. It seems to be related with the speed I draw the road. I can create a new road but have to do it very very slow.

I can still reproduce this issue in prod and beta. At least meaning that if I toggle the group off, the child layers stay visible until I either click the map refresh button, refresh my whole WME window, or I toggle some other layer that triggers the map to refresh. https://youtu.be/MipK8CGFGCs

I’m experiencing this, as well.

Same, but I think I’ve narrowed it down to when you drag/move the map. I can click a whole bunch and draw roads really fast, but the second I inadvertently click and drag, or even do it on purpose, the road completely vanishes.

Staff is aware about the problem - separate topic in Beta WME - link to Beta WME provided by ldriveskier in previous post.

Hi Dirk,

Could you please send the link to the location, where you have reproduced the issue? I have tried in the testing environment and can’t reproduce the problem.

Thanks in advance!

In the new Version i been having a lot of issues creating segments, when i start creating a segment it starts properly but as soon as you make the first click for a turn or just to create a geonode, the street disappears and is been happening since the new version started.

Hi Juan,

Thank you for the report. We understand that this issue is causing inconvenience, and our team is actively working on a hot-fix to address it ASAP.

In the meantime, we recommend using the following workaround: Create and save a portion of the segment, and then continue drawing it from there. Additionally, you can use shortcuts to initiate the segment drawing process.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We keep you updated!
