[OpenLayers-Users] Poll: Common pitfalls when using OpenLayers / what annoys you the most?

[Sveen Atle Frenvik (Geomatikk IKT)]

While I for most of the time enjoy working with OpenLayers, I do have a point that bugs me:

The fact that styling of features is complicated, and involves concepts like Style, styleMap and just a key-value object, and can be set on both layers and features, in many ways, makes styling features complex. in addition does the api doc list a Style2 class, which confuses me..

apart from that: personally i am bugged that it took me so long time to discover how versatile til Panel control is, but that is my own fault i recon..

Good luck with your talk!

Hi all,

for my talk "Common pitfalls for users of OpenLayers" [1] at this years
FOSS4G [2] I want to evaluate the parts of OpenLayers where users of the
library experience problems.

You would help me -- and the project itself -- a lot if you could answer
in this thread and tell me what problems you had working with OpenLayers.

Please do not hesitate to tell us what has bugged you, what was unclear
or non-intuitive. Provide us with the sall and the big annoyances Of
course you are heavily encouraged to provide ways around the pitfalls
and possible enhancements.

I want to identify areas which often cause problems... and eventually I
plan on making the library better where this is possible. 

Anyone is invited to share his/her thoughts -- so if you want the
library to improve, go on and tell us where we can make things better.

Thanks in advance,
Marc
