I played a little bit with display tool r435. I was not able to display the label in inkSkape. Is there a trick?
Yes, you need to make it visible in the layers dialog (Shift-Ctrl-L). There are two layers, subdivisions and labels. Click the eye next the the labels layer to see it. When the subdivisions are small the labels get in the way which is why I turned them off by default. There is also a layer drop down in the bottom status bar. You can use that as well.
I noticed that my Garmin maps have a rather small avg. number of elements compared to those produced by mkgmap. Up to now I found no simple rule reg. the area size of a sub div and the contained elements.
Yes they also appear to have a lot more smaller divisions in the mix. A selected distrubution from the topo map: 0: 192 1: 2121 2: 2629 3: 5249 4: 4108 5: 817 6: 122 7: 12 8: 0 9: 0 Most divisions are smaller than 100,000 units square and there doesn't really seem to be a lower limit. The first 192 must be less than 4x4 units. This is perhaps an extreme example, but in general the peak seems to be in the 10000-100000 range. ..Steve
