Broken map labeling spanning multiple raster tiles about tileserver-gl HOT 10 CLOSED

This indeed seems to help. Adding "symbol-avoid-edges": true to the affected layer ensures the labels are not rendered when touching the tile edge:

But it also removes some labels which were rendered correctly (such as "Fremont" or "Harbor Island").

However, it needs to be used carefully, since adding it to all layers removes unnecessarily many features (such as roads, etc.), which work correctly on the edges:

Acknowledged. We will discuss @petrsloup, how to increase the buffers around tiles to avoid this problem.

We start to work actively on this issue. Upgrade of Mapbox GL Native did not solve the problem.
The next step is digging into the combination of input data (vector tiles + JSON style) on the sample area and debug tests on the GL Native.

I did some testing and it's possible there are actually two separate issues:

• Sometimes, two labels are present very close to each other in both tiles, but it looks like different label is chosen to be used in different tile (blue circles).
• And sometimes the label is present only in one of the tiles and not the other (blue circle).

Since this issues is also happening when using mapbox-gl-native directly (center+zoom+dimensions), there is probably nothing we can do on tileserver-gl side -- it's either bug in mapbox-gl-native or the data.

We will look into the tiles data to better understand what exactly is going on.

@petrsloup - config for "MapMode::Still"?

This appears like you're hitting mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#3582, which can be fixed by adding symbol-avoid-edges: true to the clipped label layer in the style. We're considering making this default behavior and would appreciate any feedback you have, or edge cases that this fails to address.

I've the same problem,text lable spanning multiple raster tiles.

is there a metatile before export tiles in mapbox-gl-native ? like geowebcache?

from tileserver-gl.

There is currently nothing to be done on the server side.

This is more about the preparation of the data (tuning buffer sizes) and styles (sensible font sizes etc.).

This might (still) be a Mapbox GL Native bug: mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#11838
