Hi Chris, et al

 

I tried OpenMtbMap Berlin - what a beautiful map!

I see it is created with  --index, and even have an option to switch it off..

 

Interesting is that the State / Province field in MS is no longer greyed out,

but address search on the GPS still requires State / Province and can't find any.

Another interesting thing is that Garmin's original map for my area asks for country when doing address search, then city, house number, street., Never state / province.

That made me think that I corrupt my map's country data with --country-name & --region-name.

So I tried without these options, but it has no effect, addess search, and also intersection search, still asks for State / province and can't find it.

 

Did any one else with a Nuvi get address search to work on the GPS?

Chris, have you tried to upgrade your software version? Maybe it will help.

I don't want to do that, as I currently have the tracking facility on my device,

and I know that Garmin removes it on SW updates.

 

Next I want to try OpenMtbMap SouthAfrica - at the moment it doesn't download.
