Hi!
I have a strange problem with Nuvi devices. I generate one map in two versions:
- latin 1
- cp1250
Address search for both maps works well in GPSMap 62 and similar handhelds, as well as in MapSource and BaseCamp. Recently I've got a few Nuvi devices for testing and it occured that on those devices address search doesn't work - you can't choose any city (no results found).
Problem occurs when using latin1 version - cp1250 works fine.
After a lot of trial and error I found out that in Nuvi you need to enter city and street name with upper-case letters (enable "caps-lock" in device).
This is really strange and I have no idea how to resolve this situation - adding --lower-case doesn't work. It doesn't matter if I upload map using MapInstall or by dropping IMG file.
I have tested two mkgmap versions:
- mkgmap 3314 - address search broken
- mkgmap 3280 - address search works fine, although letter "ó" is not properly transliterated into "o" - Wrociszów town should be Wrociszow
I compile map for Poland - so maybe it has something to do with diacritical chars and transliteration.
best regards
