Vespucci 0.9.6 Highlights#

2015-06-23

Multi-Select mode, currently supports#

  • Deleting
  • Moving
  • Creating a relation from the selected elements
  • Tag editing on multiple objects
  • Merging multiple ways

Multi-select mode can be entered either by double-tapping an element (or a 2nd element if one is already selected) or via a menu item. The mode can be exited by double-tapping an empty area or by the usual other ways of exiting an action mode.

Restyled tag editing with split pane layout on tablets.#

  • Selective tag copy, cut and paste. Tag copy and paste copy to the system clipboard a multi-line textual representation. Paste from clipboard will either set tag values from a multi-line text clip (for example from a OCR app) or use the clip if in the same textual representation to create key-value tupels.

Relation editing improvements#

  • Highlight elements of selected relations in a different color than selected elements
  • Allow adding of relations to relations directly
  • Select all members of a relation

Other improvements#

  • Start camera app directly from vespucci, recommened app: OpenCamera version with patch that allows camera direction to be saved from vespucci
  • View information on elements in “lock” mode with long press.
  • Undo available in element selection modes.
  • Shortcut to preset selection when creating new elements.
  • Light theme that is substantially easier on the eyes.
  • Split polygon into two polygons.
