OpenStreetMap
Merkaartor now unusable. JOSM is half-usable, but not for more than 15 seconds before hitting an issue that makes me waste 30 minutes trying-and-failing to fix.
I’ve spent the last 4 nights fighting these once-excellent programs to fix and reenter the mapping I did before– but they’ve both done things /by design/ that’ve made them unusable! ffs.

So what is wrong with Merkaartor currently?

I’ve since discovered that “Set Area Opacity” was interfering with things and causing most of my problems before. Geotagged photos however are still impossible to locate (“Show Photos on Map” doesn’t) .. attempting to use the Style Editor and adding a [picture] = GeoTagged (with a fat red border on the waypoint) has no effect– making a copy of the MapnickPlus.mas (to ensure its writeable) won’t Load. In short, I can’t use Markaartor because it fails on the geotagged photo-heavy input I have to do.
