Share various open street map urls
Share various open street map urls
We are looking at the OSM France layer and then we want to share it, but there's only the standard layer not the French layer URL here.

Re: Share various open street map urls
You can add a custom share URL, for example OSM France (if this maps support sharing places), with this user setting:
Code: Select all
map.coordinates.share.provider=your url here

Re: Share various open street map urls
So, the app should realize that we are currently displaying e.g., layers A, B, and C. And therefore the urls to share that the user probably wants are directly related to those layers.
For instance if I'm looking at a open cycle map layer, then I probably want to share that layer's current url.
Okay, that's good to know that there's a way to do a custom method. However in the future, when adding new layers to the map offerings, a note should be made of the format of the URL needed to share such a position in such a layer.
That way they could be ready, with the new system that could detect which layer the user is currently using and then offer the the correct URL to share the current layer.

Re: Share various open street map urls
There are hundred of maps available, not all support sharing/pointing coordinates, and for those who do it, they all have their own way.
So the app provides pre-made share options for the main maps out there (I guess 99% of usage).
If you need a more specific map, you can set it up, which is already good.
