<p class=MsoPlainText>Picking up on this one comment:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> I remember when osmarender used to render all street
names in<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> the same<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> font size on all streets even if the streets where
too short<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> for the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> name to fit. As a result the
osmarender:renderName=no tag was<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> often<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> added to small streets to make the render look
nicer. Then<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> osmarender<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> stopped adding names to short streets and could use
a smaller<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> font<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> size on smaller streets. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'>Is there somewhere I can
request that similar is done for ref where it won't fit next to the way? The
A120 into Harwich is broken up by quite a few closely spaced roundabouts and
bridges.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'>Having said that it does look like
it tries to use different font sizes, and things do look OK at zoom levels 16
and 17. So perhaps it is just at zoom levels 12 to 15 that issues might arise?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
