good morning, I played with the new mdr index option. It worked well when building a map with only one tile from my germany tiles set. But when building the full map with 35 tiles there was an overflow in the mdr file. Is this a know problem ? And how must the mdr files be installed in mapsource in order to use the search box of mapsource? Thanks Chris

If you are using the latest version then it is not a known problem and so could you post the actual error message to help track down the problem please. This was only fully fixed in the last couple of days though, so update if you've not done so already. I have built the whole of Germany with the current version. ..Steve

With 1299 it is ok (no error). Tried it on my Etrex, Adress search is working more or less the same as with the road-name-pois option. For addresses far away from the current position it is still needed to set the reference point near to the destination via the etrex menu. Still have to test on my nuvi. Chris

A possible enhancement would be to take the original name into the index and not the "styled" name, which for example has been added by (maxspeed). Maybe by adding a indexname command into the style file, so that you could say name is "name + (ref) + (maxspeed)" but indexname is "name + (ref)" Does this make sense? Chris

Oops, I just saw this should not work because the index has to be reversed in MapSource. How does this work? Is there a documentation? Why was I able to search in my map generated with --index but without --road-name-pois ? Chris

Apparently, it works on some devices. I have never used road-name-pois, but I can search for streets on my Edge 705. Marko
