OpenStreetMap Zoom contrast

Featured Replies

When zooming in OpenStreetMap it has a point when the map goes from a predominantly white background to a grey background.  Not a big problem but my eyesight is not very good and has a problem with the lack of contrast when it does go grey. (Just as well I dont fly IRL eh!)

Apart from choosing a different map theme is there a setting I can make to prevent the loss of contrast? I couldn't see an obvious option to do it.

Sorry, there is no setting apart from changing themes. The OpenTopoMap has a high contrast but it is too colorful which makes it hard to see navaids and airports. Stamen Terrain  has big labels which are good to read at least. Try them out.

I cannot change the contrast for the online maps. These are made of rendered image tiles which LNM downloads from servers that are free to use.

Have a look at the options dialog on tab "Map Display". You change colors, line widths and other stuff there. Maybe that can help too.
