Map Editors Community WME Production Version Releases
1

Hi Everyone :wave:

We hope you’re all doing well.

We’ve just released a new version of WME prod v2.247.

Below you can find a summary of the release.

Known issues:

  • Compact mode: Road details: Selected chip looks pale while hovering in compact mode.

  • Venues: The last category under the venue could be deleted, but the save stack is empty. When you reselect the venue, the category is still there.

  • Remove my own suggestion: The status of the suggestion may temporarily display as “Awaiting Removal” after clicking the “Save” button. This can be resolved by refreshing the page.

  • Saved search: ‘All issues’ should be marked as default in case custom default search is deleted.
    New features/enhancements:

  • Turn tooltip Revamp: We are pleased to introduce the changes we have made to the Turn Tooltip. We’ve updated the tooltip menu and the actions it supports. Please see details in the release notes doc.

- New Cameras types: with today’s release the New Cameras are available also in ROW on production.
Please leave related feedback in the dedicated topic: link.

Bug fixes:
We released 9 bug fixes:

  • Issue Tracker: clicking comment number buttons does not always light them up blue (selecting them) - Fixed
  • Sub menu for turns stay visible when turn instructions editing - Fixed.
  • Share Location not working in Vietnam Map - Fixed.
  • Permanent Hazards: Block creation of dummy camera in combination with other types - Fixed
  • Permanent Hazards: Can’t delete a segment while it’s both nodes are not in the viewbox - Fixed
  • Segments: Unable to see all list with the street types - Fixed
  • Saved search: ‘Set as default’ should not be checked in case you click outside of the checkbox - Fixed
  • Unify Actions: Disabled tooltip don’t always show for restricted area - Fixed
  • Unify Actions: Incorrect padding and icons order in the New Floating menu - Fixed.

We apologize that we can’t attach the standard release notes today. Please use the link below to read about the changes in this version. We’re addressing some technical issues and will update you once they’re resolved.

You can read more here.
We look forward to hearing your feedback! :nerd_face:

Thank you,

Is it just me or the new cameras don’t have a lock?

As per the information in the supplied link:

  • Cameras are now associated with a segment. To edit or add a camera, you must meet the highest lock rank among the camera or the segment.
  • The default lock rank for all cameras is 4 unless defined otherwise in the past.

Hi LihtsaltMats,

You can find all the necessary details in the dedicated thread to the feature New Camera type are now available in WME for IL & NA & ROW.

We encourage you to leave your feedback and any suggestions there. Keeping all feedback in one place will make it easier to manage and ensure nothing gets missed.

Regards,

it looks like Difficult turns are not saved. WME shows that it’s saved, but on refresh Difficult turns are gone.

Hi Ypcyc,

Could you please share more details about the problem? Does it happen for each turn? Could you please share the link to the segment, where you recreated the case?

Thank you in advance!

Nice new features, thanks!

But is it possible to hide all the new camera types? This as none of them are applicable in Sweden!

Hi avozetta,

If you’re referring to WME, you can disable the Camera layer.

It seems to work again. I didn’t do anything different though. I guess it was a temp glitch.

Hi avozetta!

Thank you for the comment. Please reach out to the community coordinators, who can request to enable or disable certain cameras in Sweden.

The add and edit button is not working, it just adds the new POI but not open the options to edit

I am guessing you are referring to a PUR for a new place.

Can you provide a video or something? It seems to work for me when I accept a PUR for a new place.

I’m overall disappointed that, despite the overwhelmingly negative yet constructive feedback gathered in the tooltip discovery thread (beta access) in July—where over 15 editors agreed on several key points indicating that these changes were more of a downgrade than an upgrade—the feedback was mostly ignored.

The new design has made editing harder and less intuitive to edit compared to before. We expressed concerns that the staff might be prioritizing design goals over creating an intuitive, user-friendly interface for editors.

However, aside from addressing just one issue by adding a small delay to the tooltip (which previously appeared instantly and blocked other map items when hovering over turns with the mouse), the rest of our concerns were largely overlooked. It feels as though no real effort was made to compromise or improve usability, and instead, the design has been imposed on us without considering our feedback.
