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 9 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?
