There seems to be a bug in mkgmap which has now been confirmed by another user. http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=9511 The continue command is not working properly in combination with --add-pois-to-areas Here are the parameters, how it was confirmed. points style: shop=car_repair [0x2c14 continue] shop=car_repair [0x2c09] and a polygon style: shop=car_repair [0x12] Processing this on a very simple OSM file containing one polygon tagged shop=car_repair and one point tagged shop=car_repair, using the --add-pois-to-areas switch, I see: One polygon of type 0x12, with a 0x2c09 POI in the centre Two POIs consisting of one of type 0x2c09 overlain on top of another of type 0x2c14 There should be no difference, all shop=car_repair should get both icons (2c14 and 2c09) regardless if it is a polygon or a point. It would be nice, if someone of the developers could reproduce this. Walter Schlögl
