They have got rid of the old vector map they used, and replaced it with
raster maps, presumably the old Multimap ones. While I don't dislike the new
maps, we used to have the choice of vector maps in WLL and raster maps in
Multimap, now we have no choice. Also, the maps are no longer draggable
which makes them a pain to navigate.
You can get vector map back by clicking arrow to the right of the
"Map" and selecting "Tele Atlas".
Aha, thanks, hadn't seen that before - you can "choose a style",
either "Collins Bartholemew" (raster) or "Tele Atlas" (vector). Though
in Leeds and Newcastle upon Tyne the choice is "Tele Atlas" or
"Ordnance Survey", whilst in Glasgow it's just "Tele Atlas". So,
different choices for different places, though Tele Atlas appears to
be available everywhere.
