New release is out: 1.3.0

This release has panning threshold enabled to avoid accidental panning of the map when you want to just click it. Implemented and proposed by @otsaloma - thank you!

This release brings us to the latest Mapbox GL Qt bindings version - 1.3.0, released two days ago. To put in perspective, its not even yet in Qt 5.11

The bumped Mapbox GL version has few bugfixes and new features. The one I was waiting for is the ability to show map styles which have missing icons in them. For example, styles based on openmaptiles have this problem. Earlier Mapbox GL versions just refused to render anything after an error - now the error is not fatal and other layers get drawn as they should. So, Cartago is shown much better now.

I haven't looked through the changes introduced lately, so cannot tell much about the new features. For interested, look through pull requests at https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-...pr+is%3Aclosed from about 8 March to end of Aug 2017 (qt-v1.1.0). [Version 1.2.0 had an annoying bug, so I skipped it].

For my surprise, OBS was fine with compiling the plugin for SFOS 2.0.5.6. I have no way to test whether it actually works. For those interested and such old SFOS version, you are welcome to test. Get packages at https://build.merproject.org/project...e:rinigus:maps .

Enjoy and let me know if something doesn't work.
