From version 0.11; Shows the Tower Bridge area in London with Yahoo imagery as the background. Since Merkaartor uses WebKit there is no need for an external browser like Firefox. The red dots limit the area for which we have not yet downloaded (all) the information from the OSM server.
From version 0.10; Shows the area around Tildonk with the mapnik style. This is a live editing session with a refresh rate of 10 frames per second on a reasonably modern laptop. The main road is selected, it is highlighted in blue on the edit window and the properties are visible at the left side.
From version 0.12; Shows the download from OpenStreetMap dialog. The map is a slippy map that loads data from the openstreetmap tile-server
