Does mkgmap support all possible highway shields that Garmin supports? Is there any documentation on how to use them to achieve the US highway symbols and some of the state symbols as well?
This is what I have from a previous response. It should still be valid: You need to add highway-symbol prefixes to your lines style file. Example: highway=motorway {name '${ref|highway-symbol:hbox} ${name}' | '${ref|highway-symbol:hbox}' | '${name|highway-symbol:hbox}' From the source code, these are the possible values for highway shields: "interstate" // US Interstate "shield" // US Highway shield "round" // US Highway round "hbox" // box with horizontal bands "box"; // Square box "oval" // box with rounded end The US symbols display only numeric values (e.g., "1", "401", etc). The others are alphanumeric (e.g. "A5"). Cheers
