[mkgmap-dev] Question reg. default style

Thu Jun 6 10:34:08 BST 2013

Hi Thorsten,

okay, I understand.
I assume you look at the map rendered by OSM.
If you look at this area in e.g. JOSM you see that a total of four ways are
meeting in the middle of the area.
So this is probably a case where the area is not needed, but I also don't
know how to detect it.
