Atlas Weekly: W-8

This week brings dynamic point and outline sizing that scales with zoom, quantile-based cluster styling, and smarter spatial column selection — alongside a broad set of reliability and usability improvements.

Features

Dynamic Point Radius and Outline Width

Point layers now support a dynamic size mode where the radius and outline width scale with zoom level. Points grow larger as you zoom in — making them much easier to click — and shrink at lower zoom levels to reduce clutter. Toggle it on per layer in the styling panel.

Quantile and Manual Cluster Styling

Cluster color styling now supports manual and quantile scale options with configurable step counts. Quantile mode distributes clusters into equal-sized bins based on your dataset's feature count, giving you more meaningful color breakpoints than the default linear scale.

Smarter Spatial Column Selection

When adding computed spatial columns, Atlas now only shows relevant options based on your geometry type. Area is available for polygon layers only, perimeter for polygons and linestrings, and latitude/longitude for points. Tabular datasets no longer display spatial column options at all.

Fixes and Improvements

  • Fixed intermittent 403 errors when entering a project right after accepting an invite or creating it
  • Duplicate modal now stays open when warnings or errors occur, so you can review them before closing
  • Fixed a crash when splitting multi-polygon geometries
  • Fixed XYZ tile basemaps in the georeferencer causing CORS errors
  • Fixed a crash in the TinItaly elevation data integration
  • Fixed category widgets failing to save due to a missing default operation value
  • Fixed bare hex color values without '#' being rejected by the map renderer
  • Added automatic retry with token refresh on 401/403 errors, plus a refresh button on error pages
  • Fixed infinite loading on password-protected and shared project pages
  • Improved form geometry selection UX — the last geometry type now shows as active with a toast explaining why it can't be disabled
  • Improved the visual distinction between vector and tabular dataset options in forms
  • Fixed layer order not updating correctly when switching views
  • Fixed preview for locked and private properties in column transformations
  • Fixed feature list widget not refreshing after data changes
  • Fixed a dataset visibility state issue when excluding datasets from a project
  • Dataset select dropdowns in widgets are now searchable by default and maintain their order
  • Improved computed column regeneration feedback instead of showing a generic "Upload complete" message
  • Fixed collection navigation only working for the first collection
  • Fixed metadata not loading on non-public shared maps
  • Added browser compatibility for older browsers missing Array.toSorted() support
