template ${deadEnd}:${Uturn}:${direction}
RegExp 1:0:3
It usually works properly, but fails to mark segments which have U-turn on the second end.

There are new ${deadEndA/B} variables in 1.0.0, so please try smth like:
Template: A${deadEndA}:${UturnA}:B${deadEndB}:${UturnB}
RegExp: /A1:0|B1:0/

I've sent your request to french CM for an approval, so will be fixed once I get a response.

Unconfirmed segment for Validator is a segment with no country assigned. There is a limit 300 reported segments per check, so if there are more than 300 unconfirmed segments in the area, Validator will report just 300 of them.

But this is only my guess. Guys, please include permalinks in your reports/requests.

Thanks!

It's zoom lvl 3. WME does not load some segment types at zoom levels 0-3, so you need to use scan in the Validator.

The segment 189055302 you mentioned in your first post is outside the area you posted the permalink to. I zoomed out to lvl 0, run the scan and got the segment 189055302 in my report. So it looks fine to me...

Click Settings->Reset Defaults or select "search" tab and then clear the "Updated by" field. Your report does not include segments updated by you:

Thanks for your answers guys. Here is my variant

To highlight more than 100m long unnamed drivable streets:
Template: ${drivable}:${street}:${length}
RegExp: /1::...+/

Added to the list of examples: forum link

Oh, your're right. We ought to exclude parking lot roads. I'll fix it later...

You can use a custom check in Validator for that:
template: ${typeRank}:${elevation}
regexp: /^5:(?!-5)/

But in fact at the moment Validator does the opposite. In some countries it highlights walking trails with elevation -5 (check #105).

I did not hear about US Functional Classification, so I can't comment this, sorry.

krikketdoug wrote:3> Another check [...] Just mark them all places(points) instead of places(areas).

At the moment Validator does not support landmarks/places layer. There are some plans, but no promises, sorry

Validator saves options into the local storage, so there might be two reasons:
1) your browser does not allow to set local data
2) your browser automatically clears local data once you quit the browser

For Chrome browser click menu->Settings->Advanced->Content Settings and make appropriate changes.

In this particular case Validator missed a note reported by Toolbox. When I looked into the code, both Toolbox and Colour Highlight did not detect tile load properly and they both used a timer to periodically re-highlight segments.

So I had to implement a trick in Validator: once it detects the tile is loaded and ready, Validator dispatches an event to WMECH to force it to re-highlight the segments. It does not send anything to Toolbox though and I don't remember the reason. Probably the trick didn't work with Toolbox or smth


Generally speaking, those misses are plausible in Validator, esp. for the very long segments crossing the map view. So few month ago I send a message to Ohad asking a permission to use a low-level WME calls. It would allow Validator to scan the map few times faster and detect issues on the very long segments.

Now the validation functionality being implemented on the WME servers, I guess there is no reason to put much efforts here...

Confirmed, I'll try to fix it.

In Validator you can simply click search tab and then put a username(s) into "Updated by" field. The 'Updated by" field is available for country managers only.

There is a forum thread with lots of useful custom checks for US: WME Validator localization for US
