New WME v2.302

Hello Everyone :wave:

We hope you’re all doing great.

We’ve just released a new version of WME v2.302 :rocket:

Below you can find a summary of the release.

New features/enhancements:

1. Suggest an Edit on House numbers: “Suggest an Edit” feature is expanding, with House Numbers (HN) suggestions now available in WME across all environments!. This enhancement is part of our ongoing effort to enrich the Waze Map with more local knowledge and support our community’s growth. We look forward to hearing your feedback here.

2. Improved login flow for NA: The login screen is now the default view for unlogged users, replacing the previous landing screen. Language settings and practice mode button have been moved to the top right.

3. House Numbers (HN) Revamp: We’ve added several valuable improvements to make editing house numbers smoother and more efficient.

  • We have updated the flow and you can now split and/or merge segments and also add/edit a house number in the same action (same save stack).

EDIT:
4. On Segment suggestions and Suggest an edit: We will update the flow for handling Apply/Reject actions; this will be part of a future version.

5. SDK improvements: please refer to the change log to check the SDK additions.

Bug fixes:

We released 14 bug fixes:

1. Map Events Filtering / Duplicating:

  • The Map View feature doesn’t display the original polygon, and the zoom in/out behavior is incorrect after duplicating or opening a duplicated event - fixed.
  • Past events were returned in the events list when adding closures - fixed.
  • Resolved an issue that the ‘unplanned Disruption’ category event can be edited by regular editors.
  • Addressed an issue where switching any event category to ‘Local Driving Advisory’ couldn’t be undone.

2. School Zones & Scheduler: If “no end date” option checked the error “Failed to generate schedule” appears.

3. Segments: Crash caused by duplicate points — fixed.

This fix addresses the issue where dragging one node onto another could create duplicate coordinates, leading to a crash.

4. We’ve resolved the issue where creating segments would fail while panning the map. However, some edge cases still occur in random locations. We’re investigating each of these separately as local issues.

5. Suggest an Edit: We’ve introduced an automated mechanism to remove suggestions linked to deleted segments. Specifically, if a segment’s ID changes after a suggestion is made, the suggestion will now be automatically removed. Previously, these suggestions couldn’t be applied or rejected, as all actions were greyed out. We also performed a retroactive cleanup of such suggestions.

6. House numbers (HN) revamp:

  • Fixed an issue where added invalid house numbers were not highlighted, and the error notification did not explain the cause clearly.

  • Resolved an issue when using “Forced Save” incorrectly marked valid house numbers as forced. Now, only invalid house numbers are highlighted in red (forced).

  • Fixed an issue where only the ‘Too far from segment’ error was shown when multiple forcible errors were present.

7. On Segment suggestions and Suggest an edit:

  • Toggling a change before saving results in a suggestion for the opposite action.
  • We resolved the issues that when suggesting the change for the city of a named segment, the resulting suggestion may incorrectly display “A segment without a street name” instead of showing the updated address.

8. Shelters: Venue incorrectly displays as active after WME refresh - resolved.

Known issues:

  1. Turn popup appears over the instruction popup and turn closures pop-up when opening the street view
  2. Suggested closure is not highlighted on the map after hovering it
  3. Creating a segment from node to node fails with a client-side error when the editor doesn’t have permission to interact with segments. In this case, a notification about insufficient permissions is expected to be displayed.
  4. The issue where it’s not possible to select any object beneath the Permanent Hazards polygon still remains.
  5. Online editors: no online editors are visible in practice mode.

I can’t find the new explanatory tooltip showing the details of each change, nor an “X” chip that should be displayed in front of rejected elements.

Thank you for always being watchful @daviaraujo93. :folded_hands: The post has now been updated. I have rechecked, and this will be part of a future version.

You’re welcome @Olesya-Staff!

I have another situation where the “Local Driving Advisory” category is not showing up in WME. In the meantime, I’ve noticed that the “VIP visit”, “Stadium Game” and “Festival” categories are also not showing up and both categories are translated in Transifex.

Can you open an internal ticket to check or should I report it as a bug?

@daviaraujo93 first of all, thank you for translating this post to Portuguese!

To answer your question, as far as I’m aware, the “Local Driving Advisory” category should only be visible to Waze Partners (except for the events filter - it is visible there but has no functional impact); whereas the other categories have been removed.

Please let me know if you have further questions.

Best,
Olesya

Your explanation was very clear, and your attention to these details is really valuable.

That makes perfect sense now and I’ll make sure to document this properly on the Wazeopedia Brazil for future reference.

Appreciate your quick reply and support.

Best regards,

Your best bet is to find your country among the regions here and post for local editors to see. If Romania is your country, you can post here.

Cannot wait for you to try it out @MichiGigaByte360! :smiling_face:

In fact I tried it and I managed to insert the “forced” civic numbers mentioned in Can’t add HN for unknown reasons.

This way I avoid many back and forth private messages and map comments with my State Manager. It’s not that I don’t want to write to him :sweat_smile: but we can write to each other about other map problems

@romeo071992 Welcome to Discuss!

Your question will be moved to the ‘correct place’ for edit requests shortly.

Hang in there, it’ll get sorted.

See you soon.

I have the following minor tweak-request for School Zones for the next WME release if you find it appropriate. Please, make road segments selectable when there is School zone mapped over them. Make School Zone area act the same was as Place area and Comment area act. This will make tweaking school zone much easier and precise. Regards.

Hi @WazingArch,

Thanks a lot for your feedback! We have an internal ticket to address this issue. It was originally raised in this report. Please follow that thread to receive further updates.
