[mkgmap-dev] Splitter resolution and mapsource mouseover behaviour

Fri Jan 15 23:37:04 GMT 2010

Can someone please either explain or point me at some doc that explains
the meaning of the splitter --resolution option:

 --resolution     The resolution of the overview map to be produced by mkgmap. Default is 13

Does this force the tile boundaries to be rounded (not round in
shape, but coords rounded to match the overview resolution). Is that
how it works?

I ask because I have noticed that on the Baltic map, the popup blurb
you get when the mouse is over a map feature goes away near some tile
edges and I suspect that having fooled around with the tile sizes, I
have somehow borked the relationship between the tiles and the overview
map.

Thanks,

Mark
