Description

The spacial ordering of features require further tweaking, as the attached screenshot shows (ordering-issue.png).

I've attached the dataset used in the screenshot, shows ordering issue using the default angle (set height to the HEIGHT layer field).

History

#1 Updated by Matthias Kuhn almost 10 years ago

The problem is not trivial.

Right now the rendering order is defined by the distance from an imaginary camera being placed "extent width * 1000" from the map center in opposite view direction.

One option would be tessellating the buildings. But that would mean to introduce a virtual layer or a preprocessing step.

Using distance( centroid ) may improve the situation in certain cases but would probably make it worse in others.

Better ideas?
