Advanced feature styling

Mapforge stores your maps in GeoJSON format. Below you can see the list of supported properties to style your map elements (called features in GeoJOSN).
Most of the properties are supported to be changed in the UI. For changing the properties directly, you can use the Edit JSON button in the feature details modal.
