and cities

[sensescape]

This is what I have currently for cities. Nothing is showing.

city-points-z9[zoom=9],

city-points-z10[zoom=10],

city-points-z11[zoom=11],

city-points-z12[zoom=12] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-face-name: 'Arial Regular';
text-fill: #fff;
text-halo-fill: @land;
text-placement: point;
text-max-char-angle-delta: 30;
text-wrap-width: 40;
text-halo-radius: 2;
text-allow-overlap: false;
text-size: 13;
text-spacing: 100;
text-line-spacing: -5;
text-wrap-width: 70;

}

city-points-z9[zoom=9] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 13;

}

city-points-z9[zoom=9][font_size=20] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 20;

}

city-points-z10[zoom=10] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 13;

}

city-points-z10[zoom=10][font_size=20] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 20;

}

city-points-z11[zoom=11] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 13;

}

city-points-z11[zoom=11][font_size=20] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 20;

}

city-points-z12[zoom=12] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 13;

}

city-points-z12[zoom=12][font_size=20] {

text-name: '[name]';
text-size: 20;

}

What do I use to get neighborhood names?

[mojodna]

I created a new layer (#place-labels), so you'll need to pull to get it. Once it's in, you can use this to fill in labels:

#place-labels
{
  [place='city'][zoom>=10],
  [place='town'][zoom>=10],
  [place='village'][zoom>=12],
  [place='suburb'][zoom>=13],
  [place='neighborhood'][zoom>=13],
  {
    text-name: '[name]';
    text-face-name: 'Arial Regular';
    text-fill: #fff;
    text-halo-fill: @land;
    text-placement: point;
    text-max-char-angle-delta: 30;
    text-wrap-width: 40;
    text-halo-radius: 2;
    text-allow-overlap: false;
    text-size: 13;
    text-spacing: 100;
    text-line-spacing: -5;
    text-wrap-width: 70;
  }
}

(I think #city-points-* was generated by Dymo, which isn't really an option for this project because the data is going to be refreshed periodically by Emil etc. and we can't/shouldn't introduce additional [time-consuming] steps into the process.)

[sensescape]

Can we adjust font size according to population size for cities?

[mojodna]

Yes. Pull from GitHub to get an updated project file that exposes population and then add something like this (within the #place-labels block):

[population>=50000]
{
 text-size: 15;
}

[sensescape]

Tried this, but doesn't seem to have effect of the text size:

place-labels

{ [place='city'][zoom>=10], [place='town'][zoom>=10], [place='village'][zoom>=12], [place='suburb'][zoom>=13], [place='neighborhood'] { text-name: '[name]'; text-face-name: 'Arial Regular'; text-fill: #000; text-halo-fill: @land; text-max-char-angle-delta: 30; text-wrap-width: 40; text-halo-radius: 2; text-allow-overlap: false; text-size: 10; text-spacing: 100; text-line-spacing: 2; text-wrap-width: 70; }

[zoom>=11] { [population>=50000] { text-name: '[name]'; text-face-name: 'Arial Regular'; text-size: 20; } } }

[mojodna]

I'm guessing it's a CSS specificity thing. What happens if you comment out the block with the place types in it?

[sensescape]

Almost done. Just not sure if this is working or not: [zoom>=14][zoom<=15] { [population>=40000] { text-name: '[name]'; text-face-name: 'Arial Regular'; text-size: 17; }

[population>=15000]
{
  text-name: '[name]';
  text-face-name: 'Arial Regular';
  text-size: 14;
}

}
