Hi Torsten,
I wanted to ask that when we click the menus other than "openstreetmap" in
the left panel. It shows only the outline of the world map.
So, does the project want to be developed a way such that when user clicks
the "openstreetmap" menu, the openstreetmap automatically opens a region of
interest (as it is mentioned a city/country/etc) just as when you click
other maps such as, "atlas", "earth at night", etc. it opens the map for
you. But for the openstreetmap, the user has to have a .osm file.

-Regards
 Rahul Sharma
