Hi Ticker,
Line 1959 - is TYPViewer objecting to "String=River..." because it wants something of the form "String1=0x00,River..." or is it objecting to the "," between River & Wadi?
This is "acceptable" to TYPViewer: String=River Wadi (Intermittent) String1=0x01,Cours d’eau (intermittent) So (...?) for "unspecified language" (default??) TYPViewer doesn't like csv. Next TYPViewer will "renumber", so this was not the issue: String1=0x00,River Wadi (Intermittent) String2=0x01,Cours d’eau (intermittent)
Polygon 0x3d errors - Not sure what it doesn't like here
I don't know either, I just resolved "Quick and (very) Dirty" because I wanted a proof of concept for a "mapnik"-Map.
This polygon should be transparent
Oké, thanks. Now I have the challenge to use mkgmap to convert typ-files from .txt to .typ, find a "bay" (have I ever seen one in real life??) and hopefully I will understand "the long debate".
if TYPViewer doesn't allow you to save in the required char-set then this is a fundamental problem in using TYPViewer to do the conversion.
TYPViewer will Save utf8 As utf8 and Save 1252 As 1252. So the encoding of my source file is leading. So I have a work-around. Eric (AnkEric) -- Sent from: http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/Mkgmap-Development-f5324443.html
