Magic Lane Studio
Magic Lane Studio is the web editor for Magic Lane map styles. Open a style from the portal, change how the map looks against a live map, and download the file your app loads. Every change is saved as you work, and every change to the style can be undone.
Studio shows the map the way people describe it, as land, water, roads, place labels and points of interest, and lets you edit it layer by layer: zoom ranges, colours that change with zoom, text, icons and data filters. A style can carry its own font for its labels. Shared colours change every layer that uses a colour at once, and themes keep several colour sets, such as Day and Night, in one style. You can add your own data by drawing on the map or uploading GeoJSON, line-delimited GeoJSON, CSV, TSV, KML or GPX files.
Styles made with Magic Lane Studio work with every Magic Lane Maps SDK. Download and use in your app shows how to load a style.
