[mkgmap-dev] Need help with string handling in mkgmap

Thu Feb 15 14:16:06 GMT 2018

Hi Manfred,

maybe have a look at this rule from the default style:
natural=peak {name '${name|def:}${ele|height:m=>ft|def:}' } [0x6616 resolution 24]
It uses the height filter to convert the unit so that Garmin software shows the value in the wanted unit.
I am not sure if Garmin software shows a unit, but it will show the correct value.

Gerd

Hi, i'm struggling with the following problem and until now, i didn't
find a solution. It seems, that in osm sometimes the height or elevation
tag is filled with the unit sign, i.e 'm' and sometimes not. So with my
current point file i either get elevation without the unit letter or
with double unit letter - i.e 'Mm'. How to handle this ?

I tried with this

height=* { set mkgmap:height='${height|subst:"m=>"}'}
ele=* { set mkgmap:ele='${ele|subst:"m=>"}'}

but it doesn't work
