hi Watabou, I really like what you've done here.

Would it be possible to get (an option for) a table on the page with the legend and metadata? Moving the legend off the image could help make it more readable, and it would be nice to see the tags and other information that is currently accessible only via the context menu.

Hi! Do I understand correctly that you are asking about moving the legend to the place where the list of hotkeys currently is? Sorry, I don't think it's technically possible, the generator can't access that static part of the page.

Ah, so if I understand correctly the generator has control over a single element of the page, and not multiple elements. I can see how that could make it more difficult.

Hmm... and it seems all we can see is the generator, not the generated content. That is, likely cannot embed the meta text in an alt tag or the like.

I do see that the meta text is in separate text elements in the SVG export, though. It would be fairly easy, after manually exporting the image as SVG, to tweak the appearance.

Thanks for the quick response. I've got some things to think about.

As an alternative, an option to output the legend to a .txt file and being able to show just the numbers on the map would be fantastic. :-)

I'll think about it👍

Meanwhile you can easily hide the legend in svg right in Chrome:
