Talk:Brandenburg

Mapshapes

First of all the Mapshape shows Brandenburg and Berlin as if they were one, Berlin is its own state, for better or worse. The other thing is the single punk line North-South through Berlin. What's the purpose of that one? Hobbitschuster (talk) 02:24, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Brandenburg mapshape

Swept in from the pub

For some weird reason, the Brandenburg mapshape pretends that Berlin is part of that state. This is of course not the case. How do we fix that? Hobbitschuster (talk) 17:59, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Maybe not have a mapshape at all, just include a map with no parts highlighted. Selfie City (talk) 18:49, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

@Hobbitschuster: Is this the look that you wanted? You can always add multiple Geomasks (light) and Geoshapes (dark) to the dynamic maps should the available shapes differ from the desired result. I'd assume that {{Mapshape}} would go into more detail about this.

@Wauteurz: can this technique be added to the Dynamic Maps instructions? This would have been useful for Brussels as well, but was unknown at the time its map was created. ArticCynda (talk) 09:15, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

@ArticCynda: Sure thing. I'll add it to Wikivoyage:Dynamic maps Expedition later unless there is a more central place for dynamic map tutorials where it would fit better. In that case, please let me know so I can add it there.
