Hi Felix,
Did this work for you on the example road?
Yes, the small way gets zapped: 2009/06/04 13:08:43 INFO (Osm5XmlHandler): Way Thomas-Tamussino-Straße (OSM id 27174349) has short arc (2.87m) - removing it by merging node 371185471 into 286059582
I tried it and it would not work for me. Road is still broken.
I notice that on 0 I have the same filesizes as before - so nothing is broken. Increasing from 0- 6m filesize gets bigger, but nevertheless the street is missing 3m, attached a screenshot from gpsmapedit (don't mind the shopping symbol, that is 0x2f0f which I use for road-name-pois). Actually whether I specify 3 or 6 does not matter for austria.osm.bz2, filesize stays identiacal.
I attach a screenshot of what I get with gpsmapedit. Cheers, Mark
