Hi Ticker, see https://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=3948 https://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=3949 the sortResource.patch reverts these changes. In Mapsource the results are a bit better with your patch. I'll try again with my Oregon later. Gerd

Gaps in surfaces
by Forstner Michael 08 Oct '23

08 Oct '23

Hello, in some areas, gaps may appear (see attachment). In OSM, however, the surfaces are connected and the nodes have the same coordinates. There should be no rounding errors. It will therefore be a bug in mkgmap. I ask for correction. Thank you! Best regards, Michael

Problem with address search
by Forstner Michael 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Hello, not all buildings are found during the search. I used the address Gräfinghausen 10 as an example. You cannot find this address in the list on the right side. It could be that my style files have a problem. Maybe someone could try to see if the same error occurs with their style. Thank you! Best regards, Michael

Re: [mkgmap-dev] House numbers

Hello Gerd, I am not sure what to do with the hack from the attachment. Can you help me here.  I would like to make the problem even clearer. I hope you can see the pictures. In the first picture you can see the address with addr:street. Everything is displayed correctly here. The second picture shows addr:place. The window here is weird. The name of the village is missing here. It is unusual that only the house number is displayed. I have tried the following settings with no success: mkgmap:street!=* & addr:place=* { set mkgmap:street='${addr:place}' }  -> With this the search function will be destroyed. This seems to confuse the software. mkgmap:place!=* & addr:place=* { set mkgmap:place='${addr:place}' } -> This also has no function because mkgmap:place does not seem to be used. # mkgmap:street!=* & addr:street=* { set mkgmap:street='${addr:street}' } # mkgmap:street!=* & addr:housename=* { set mkgmap:street='${addr:housename}' } # mkgmap:housenumber!=* & addr:housenumber=* { set mkgmap:housenumber='${addr:housenumber}' } -> Everything is commented out here. But I get the same results as shown in the pictures. It seems as if the evaluation for addr:street and addr:place are hardcoded. Do you maybe have a solution for this? Thank you! Best regards Michael

Commit r4911: Improve house number processing:
by svn commit 18 Sep '23

18 Sep '23

Version mkgmap-r4911 was committed by gerd on Mon, 18 Sep 2023 Improve house number processing: - don't add a further label for an unamned road if there are no house numbers (reduces IMG size) - if an unnamed road is used for addr:place addresses, forget a previously assigned label from a nearby named road. This happened quite often where unnamed e.g. a highway=unclassifed is connected to a named road and mkgmap identified the unnamed road as a possible service road (method identifyServiceRoads()) (reduces IMG size and prevents false matches where the same address is found searching for place ABC or road XYZ) http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/websvn/revision.php?repname=mkgmap&rev=4911

House numbers
by Forstner Michael 03 Sep '23

03 Sep '23

Hello, basically, the address search in BaseCamp works. But there is only a problem with street names if I click on a street. Often only the house number is displayed here. There are the following cases: 1. addr:street is defined for a building. When using this parameter, the highway in the near must have the same name as addr:street. If I click on a highway in BaseCamp this will be shown: addr:street addr:housenumber. This works beautifully. 2. However, when using addr:place on a building, there is usually no nearby highway with the same name. Then only addr:housenumber is displayed for the highway. This is not correct. There are the following settings: mkgmap:street!=* & addr:street=* { set mkgmap:street='${addr:street}' } mkgmap:housenumber!=* & addr:housenumber=* { set mkgmap:housenumber='${addr:housenumber}' } Is this a bug or I am doing something wrong? I ask for support! Thank you! Best regards, Michael
