I'm trying to find "alternate" streets names but for some reason I can't get my search to work?

Code: Select all

${typeRank}:${altStreet}
/(10|11):(^(.(?!(Rd$)))*$)/
I'm trying to find all alternate street names that that don't finish with "Rd" that are street or primary street.

I don't know why it doesn't work, tried may things

Thanks
First off, ^ is the beginning of the string. You only get one string, and the string is [typerank]:[altstreet], so ^ is before the typerank number. The colon is an arbitrary separator between the typerank and the alt name, it does not establish separate strings for the purposes of regex.

${altStreet[#]} prints a list of all alt streets separated by the # character (also arbitrary, like the colon above). I added that stuff in and removed some superfluous parentheses. I'm not sure if this will work, because I'm not very good with negative lookaheads, but it's closer.

Code: Select all

${typeRank}:${altStreet[#]}
/(10|11):.(?!(Rd(#|$)))*(#|$)/

Easily done. If you don't want to see "Street name on two-way Ramp", put "!28" ("not 28") in the "Reported as" field on the [Magnifying glass] page. You can see the numbers by hovering over the report name in the left panel. Separated by commas, you can turn off any checks you like by including a string like "!28,!128", or show only certain checks by using a string like "28,128".

As for turning it off completely, it's pretty useful in the USA, so we'd like to keep it. Of course, berestovskyy can add or remove any particular check for any particular country... but good luck finding him......

There is also a Chrome Web Store version, for which this apparently will not work.

I hope he will because this is one of the most useful scripts. Thanks for you work. JD
By default I don't have it running.
But then it doesn't do anything ;)

It would be nice to disable logging so that highlights could still be displayed, without using the memory to compile the report that is seldom used.

Plenty of scripts highlight without building a log that you can read. Validator is the only one that continues to hold the identities of those segments long after they're off screen, until cleared manually.

Understandable given its design to scan larger sections of the map, but many don't use it that way, so it's an unnecessary extra step.

Indeed, which is why the suggestion is to allow users to turn off logging. I would not suggest gutting the core functionality of the script just to save some annoyance every once in a while ;)

You are not wrong. It is a bug, and should be reported as such, if it isn't already. It's so long-standing, though, that it long predates Centercode, and we've mapped to fix it for many, many years, and so it'll be hard to find a reproducible example, and anyway, it's very well ingrained into our mapping guidance. Also, as it's caused by such a deep and fundamental method of the routing system and the way it integrates with the app, I imagine it's not an easy fix, either.

What browser are you using and what other extensions do you run at the same time?
This is in the beta editor.

I see it was "temporarily disabled", but are we going to get the "unneeded node A/B" back in a release anytime soon. It's a lot faster to send a new user a report with these listed in it then trying to PL them all myself. :)

Thanks
