Hi all, I think the Garmin renderer only uses the information from the RGN file. This contains the geometry of the points, lines and shapes, the type and pointer(s) to the labels. No idea how the renderer decides where to render a highway shield. I also cannot reproduce the problem with the default style. I assume the style used by Joris adds multiple ways for one OSM way, maybe with different labels ?

I wonder , Gerd, if it is possible to only add a shield if highway's length > a length defined by the user?
