mapbox-gl

Features

• Add promoteId option to use a feature property as ID for feature state

• Add a new constructor option to mapboxgl.Popup, closeOnMove, that closes the popup when the map's position changes

• Allow creating a map without a style (an empty one will be created automatically) ( h/t @stepankuzmin )

• map.once() now allows specifying a layer id as a third parameter making it consistent with map.on()

Improvements

• Improve performance of raster layers on large screens

• Improve performance for hillshade and raster layers by implementing a progressive enhancement that utilizes ImageBitmap and OffscreenCanvas

• Improve performance for raster tile rendering by using the stencil buffer

• Update symbol-avoid-edges documentation to acknowledge the existence of global collision detection

• Remove reference to in function which has been replaced by the in expression

Bug Fixes

• Change the type of tile id key to string to prevent hash collisions

• Prevent changing bearing via URL hash when rotation is disabled

• Fix URL hash with no bearing causing map to fail to load

• Fix bug in GeolocateControl where multiple instances of the control on one page may result in the user location not being updated

• Fix query fill-extrusions made from polygons with coincident points and polygons with less than four points

• Fix bug where symbol-sort-key was not used for collisions that crossed tile boundaries

• Fix bug in DragRotateHandler._onMouseUp getting stuck in drag/rotate

• Fix "Click on Compass" on some mobile devices (add clickTolerance to DragRotateHandler) (#9015) (h/t Yanonix)
