[mkgmap-dev] Adaptions in style (needed to make good use of) for overview2 branch

Thu May 9 10:57:28 BST 2013

I found out that Mapsource won't render pois in the overview map if they have different types on each zoom level.

Points:

place=city & capital=yes [0x0b00 resolution 12-15 continue]
place=city [0x0400 resolution 16]

Options file:

levels = 0:24, 1:23, 2:22, 3:20, 4:18
overview-levels = 0:17, 1:15

Only the 0x0400 poi is rendered, but in the lowest levels (<16) from the overview map no capital 0x0b00 is shown,
altough you can still see it in the ovm_ file. If I change the type into either 0x0400 or 0x0b00 , it is rendered.
Don't know if this is a Mapsource bug or something that can be impproved in mkgmap?
