Now that the waters are displaying fine, with names, I am facing another problem: The names of islands are missing when using the default style. I do not see them even in the gmapsupp.img file.
Here are two examples that I tried. The first one is very sparsely mapped, and the second one is very detailed:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/42942687 name=Karjamätäs, place=islet (role=inner in a multipolygon that has waterway=riverbank in role=outer)
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/36911729 name=Seurasaari, place=island, natural=coastline (in the Baltic sea)
There is a place=island in the points file but no place=island or place=islet in the polygons file. Would that help? What should the area name be set to?
If a natural=coastline is converted to a sea multipolygon by the generate-sea code, should the natural=coastline island also be converted to a land multipolygon in role=outer and any areas on the island in role=inner, so that there would be no drawing conflict with areas on the island?
Best regards,
Marko
Marko, first of all: you should not run mkgmap with the patch I created for you. I don't know for sure but this patch might have an impact on the tagging. If you have the same problems without the patch it might also be caused by the generate-sea code. Copying of names from original ways to the artificial multipolygon ways seems to be a bit inconsistent. Or in other words: I didn't understand some parts of the tag handling there :-) Maybe it's worthy having a look on it. WanMil
