<p>Is it possible that your Garmin only has icons for 3-6-9-12 o'clock and is "rounding off" the angle in a funny way? It may be a fraction over 180 degrees and so getting "rounded up" (wrongly) to what you see. I have looked at the OSM data for that roundabout and there is nothing wierd there as far as I can see.</p>
<p>Also you say you are using r1919 of mkgmap. As from r3116 the internal calculations are being done in a higher resolution, to mitigate problems which can have symptoms like you are seeing. Can you try a later version(>=3116) , to see if that is any better?</p>

<pre>Greetings Andy
All roundabouts... mmm did I say so?
;)
Ok here is an example of a roundabout:
Round about position:
55.586085, 11.857095
Roundabout approach direction:
MY 6 o'clock
To complete my journey I need to exit the roundabout at:
MY 12 o'clock
The voice in Danish guides me correctly by telling me to take the second
exit.
******************************************
The icon on the navigations window of my GPS (top left)
indicates that I have to exit the roundabout at:
MY 9 o'clock

P.S. Remember... life is not about the destination, but the amazing journey.

<pre>Well "all" is quite a lot. He must have driven around lots of roundabouts
to test that :-)
Seriously, an example would still help - specifically to see if the
roundabouts concerned have a node shared between one road's exit flare and
another's entrance. It would also allow other who use mkgmap themselves to
chip in and say "_my_ map does/does not have the problem at that
roundabout", to get a few more data values than 2, to try and figure out
what might be the difference that is causing the problem.
I've just tried simulating a route through a bunch of nearby roundabouts (on
an eTrex Vista HCx and a Nuvi 265W) and I'm not seeing the problem as
described - in each case the on-screen pictures (including the small one on
the Nuvi) matches the verbal direction.
I'm using "mkgmap-r1919" (quite old) and the options "--add-pois-to-areas
--remove-short-arcs --levels="0=24, 1=22, 2=21, 3=19, 4=18, 5=16" --route
--gmapsupp".
Cheers,
Andy
