This simplifies the implementation, allows code sharing with
"Where am I?", and produces friendlier results for lat/lon
searches (actual reverse geocode results rather than a raw
lat/lon display).
Tighter copy on node list for to decrease the chance of an ugly line
break (need better fix here so the line break is smoother). Just changed
also part of way %{related_ways} to part of way %{related_ways}. This
needs a better fix to make line breaks indent properly, but this should
at least help a little (issue #185).
Properly positioned 'nearby users' block on user page to be in the left
column (issue #184).
Removed deemphasized class from search results (issue #181) lighter
highlight yellow on changesets page.
I set out to do a quick and dirty typography overhaul to make things
more consistent and a bit cleaner, but I kept running into things I
didn't like, so this lead me down something of a rabbit hole of design
tweaks to the OSM site.
Goals here are to have better content hierarchy, better vertical
rhythm, more consistent UI, cleaner markup with less tables, all while
keeping the basics pretty much intact. There are a lot of things I
didn't touch even though they need to be updated (lots of tables where
stuff shouldn't be tables, mostly).
Basic overview of changes:
I added a new persistent header that helps segment pages. It's now
a lot easier to know what you're looking at. The header has a page
title, a description, plus a submenu of actions.
There is now a pattern of 20px/10px margins and padding for more
rhythm and breathing room throughout the site.
I know there are other problems here or things I've missed - would
love another set of eyes to look over this! I am still getting comfortable
working on the site - it's my first time ever digging into a ruby or rails
so I'm not familiar with the templating language yet.
