Frequent Loss Of Speed Limit

In the 6.1.3 beta release the speed limit value frequently stops displaying while driving, leaving only the live vehicle speed from an ODB2 dongle. This is a change from the 6.1.2 beta where the speed limit was consistently displayed.

On the route below, there was no speed limit displayed for about half of the route. Before there was a speed limit for the whole route (or very close to it).

    Hi @Doug Urner,

    Which part of the route are you looking at? Quick look tells me we’re not getting speed limit data for the entire route from OSM.

      The blue section: Wollochet > Fillmore > 56th > Olympic.

      I just looked at OSM & indeed the speed limit data is missing on a lot of that route. I just added it back in where I know the values. I’ll check the rest next time I drive that way. How did you get that black pane with “Edit in Open Street Map” to appear? That looks handy.

        Figured it out: in the web view you get a pointer when you’re over a route segment and you can click on it to open up the pane. Nice. Does this also work on a phone?

          Correct :) makes filling in OSM data somewhat easier.

          Yes, it does.

            Getting the edit in OSM pane to show up on an iPhone 13 mini does work, but it is hard. Got it to open the pane once, but several other tries resulted in no response or caused a pin to drop.
