Hi ALexandre,

I did not write the code but I think this snippet in LinkDestinationHook.java answers the question:

                            if (wayLength < 10 && w.getPoints().size() < 3) {
                               log.info("Way", w, "is too short (", wayLength," m) to cut it into several pieces. Cannot place exit hint.");
                               continue;
                           }

I must confess that I don't understand this limit, maybe it was introduced to avoid zig-zagging lines, maybe Garmin ignores

ways which are too short.

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] Minimum size for a "_link" to process "destination"

Hi mkgmap developers,

I noticed that when a "_link" containing the tag "destination" (trunk_link, for example) is too small, mkgmap doesn't preprocesse the exit (set dest_hint). For example, if this "_link" has only 8 meters size, no destination nor exit hint is generated by mkgmap for this specific "_link".

Could you tell me the "_exit" minimum lenght considered by mkgmap to process destination hint?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Alexandre Loss
