Hi Dave, the relations file allows to add tags from the relations to the members. I guess you want to do something else, maybe calculate a polygon that encloses all members ? Gerd Dave Swarthout wrote Can someone give me information about rendering relations. I have tagged some relations of

Yes, ideally I'd like to show the contents of the name tag (for example, name=Nice Apartments), in the center of the space occupied by the three (or more) objects that make up the site. Is this possible? On Mon, Feb 23, 2015 at 6:08 PM, GerdP gpetermann_muenc...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi Dave,

Hi Gerd, I see no reason why we should not add the overview map to the gmapsupp if that is what the user wants and the device is working fine with it. There is no need to add overview to gmapsupp. It can be copied as a separate file to GPS with the same result. Or user can merge overview map

I'ld rather see a good OSM based worldmap (or simply based on other open sources if they prove to be better for use ) that we could use to exchange the basemap. Thinking about a map - usable both in Basecamp/Mapsource as well as on GPS Devices - 15-20MB in size - including ocean/land, big cities

Hi Dave, it is not possible now, but I think the needed calculation is not very complicated. We'd need a tag like mkgmap:calcPolygon=1 to tell mkgmap that it should add a way containing the tags of the relation and the points of the convex hull. I'm busy with the housenumbers2 branch now, maybe

Hi Ralf, Is this possible on gps units which support only one map file? It is possible on all current outdoor GPS and nuvis but probably not on eTrex Legend HCx. You would have to merge img. It can be done with mkgmap or GMapTool. -- Best regards, Andrzej

Hi Steve, I think Arndt is right, mkgmap requires much more heap now when computing the index, also without the new --x-split-name-index option. This is his error message: Exception in thread main java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded at
