Firefox - vector no longer works?

[Matic K.]

I recently noticed that Web Mapy has switched back to non-vector mode in Firefox (v. 155.0.1 on Mac). However, vector raster works fine in Chrome.

Could this be a bug?

I can confirm the same problem in Firefox on Windows. Chrome works fine.

It is still just a test available for a limited percentage of users. You might get not lucky when opening the web in a new browser. Also if there is a problem that we manage to detect in advance the page does not crash but reverts back to the raster version. AFAIK there was a FF specific issue recently, maybe it was that. Right now it is not happening anymore, though. I have just tested the vector version in FF and it seems to load and work properly.

@Jakub-Kraft-0 I see. Vector had worked for me for the past couple of weeks and I got quite used to it (the topography looks better than the non-vector version), so in a way it feels like a step back now without vector map. Hopefully it will become available soon again.

In my opinion, the biggest drawback of the vector map, however, is the display of route names on the raster layer. It is much less reliable than on the non-vector map, often appearing only at certain zoom levels or not at all. On Mobile, rotating the map by 180° can sometimes help when a route name wouldn't appear otherwise, but this is inconvenient, and the workaround is not possible on Web Mapy.

I hope your team can make route-name rendering more robust, so names appear consistently across a wider range of zoom levels and viewing angles.
