OK will look at the patch. Given your experience I think you are correct, map will be too crowded. On Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 7:58 PM, Clinton Gladstone <clinton.gladstone@googlemail.com> wrote:

Currently building polygons have names in my area. How do I add the names in the map and enable search?
A while back I believe I posted a patch which modified the polygons style file to add names (and house numbers) to buildings. This makes the name, and house number if present, be displayed in the polygon.
When I did this, I noticed that the only way to make the buildings appear in searches was to use the area to POI option: I added corresponding building entries to the points file. However this caused such an over-proliferation of POIs that I found the approach to be impracticable.
