There's no way. With your rule Garmin doesn't recognize ele_in_m value as an elevation and so units are not displayed. I could hard code an m of ft unit to be shown, but then user could not change it in settings. I was already using a rule with the same problem:
ele ~ '.*feet' { set ele='${ele|conv:feet=>m}'}
ele ~ '.*ft' { set ele='${ele|conv:ft=>m}'}
natural=peak {name '${name} (${ele|subst:"m=>"}m)' | '${name}' | '${ele|subst:"m=>"}m' } [0x6616 resolution 24]
Anyway, I can live with "name, ele unit" ;-)

Hi Carlos,

to answer your question: my understanding is that you should  not use the 
height filter.
I did not try but I think something like conv:m=>ft|conv:ft=>m should extract 
the raw
value in m, so maybe something like this:
ele=* {set ele_in_m='(${ele|conv:m=>ft|conv:ft=>m})'
natural=peak {name '${name|def:}${ele_in_m}' } [0x6616 resolution 24]

Hi Carlos,

it seems that the Garmin software is interpreting a value with the prefix 
"\u001f"
to format it as something lije ", " + convertFeetToWantedUnit(value).

BTW: I found some routines im mkgmap which treat these prefixes special, e.g.
Label.stripGarminCodes(String s), but those are called for lines, not for POI, .
Maybe that is an error?

Gerd

Current rule for peaks using height: filter results in peaks named in
the form "name, ele m" (of ft according to your settings). I would like
show peaks formated as "name (ele m)". I've been playing with line "s =
"\u001f" + s;" in HeightFilter.java adding parenthesis in different
ways, but nothing worked as desired. Is there a way to get what I want?

Hi Colin,

my understanding is that the heigth filter is used to allow the Garmin software 
to interpret the value
and format it as wanted by the user.

I am not sure how far mkgmap should exceed its original scope and become a QA 
tool... But maybe an option to configure the output format of the height and 
conv functions (w.r.t. decimal separator, thousands separator, number of digits 
etc) might be useful? Perhaps the program could take (some of) the settings 
from the user's current locale.

Hi all,

it is quite easy to implement the support for comma as optional decimal 
separator, but
much more difficult to produce a reasonable warning. The problem is that the 
routine
which detects the error may be called several times when style rules are 
evaluated.
Attached is a patch which creates a warning for each evaluation.
With the default style the messages look like this:
WARN: uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.actions.ConvertFilter  f:\osm\peaks.osm: 
invalid decimal separator found in value '13,3' 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/-31655

WARN: uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.actions.ConvertFilter  f:\osm\peaks.osm:

invalid decimal separator found in value '13,3m' 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/-31660

The corresponding OSM file is attached, a binary with the patch is here:
   http://files.mkgmap.org.uk/download/332/mkgmap.jar

@Steve: Please check the change in the regex pattern, I think the dot in the 
existing pattern should be quoted ?

Hi Carlos,

maybe mkgmap could issue a warning for filter whenever input data are
not compatible? Comma is a standard decimal separator in Poland and
there is a lot of erroneous tags. I haven't noticed this problem until now.

When numeric value contains a comma, filter "height" doesn't convert tag
value but adds a a separator. The result is that Mapsource doesn't
display label at all.
