[mkgmap-dev] Curious behaviour of map text

Fri Mar 29 12:32:40 GMT 2019

Hi Gerd

as you suggested, i added the continue statement to the directive, but,
its still not working properly. Without that line, i can see nearly at
all relevant zoom-levels street and city names both on mapsource or my
GPSMAP 276Cx, with that line, on MapSource the city names will only be
displayed at lower zoom levels (let say starting at 1km, 1.5 km and
above) but on device they still are not visible.

BTW, as the housenumbers are shown on the device with really big
letters, i will forgot this option as it will make the maps on my device
nearly unreadable :'(

But anyway, its strange ...
