halo at low zooms: blur? #5

Closed almccon closed 8 years ago

Looks like the original terrain does a blur, which helps:

This is true for some labels all the way up to zoom 11: screen shot 2015-06-19 at 6 41 42 pm Notice that San Francisco has a blur halo, but the parks just have a colored halo

Applying the following helps but makes the labels stand out too much when they are over water or green areas.

  text-halo-radius: 2;
  text-halo-fill: fadeout(rgba(255,255,255, 0.7), 30%);

Haven't had much luck attempting to implement the blur halo effect from the og tiles. None of the comp-op options seem to grab the color under the text halo.

The best I found so far seems to be text-halo-comp-op: overlay; but it's fairly subtle.
