Hi, This looks good to me. With regards to Joris' enquiry, if there is no way to use information in LocatorConfig.xml in a style file to differentiate between drive on left and right roads would it be possible to include code that uses LocatorConfig.xml information to add a tag to ways, when they are processed, indicating they are drive on right/left. This tag could then be used in the style file to allocate the appropriate one way type. In a drive on left country the oneway arrows should be on the left of the road, if they are on the right they will get mixed up in the centre of a dual carriage way for example. This makes more sense when 2 countries that drive on opposite sides of the road border each other and the map created covers both countries. Not something that happens in Europe but does in Central/Southern Africa, Zambia, DRC and Angola for example. Kind regards, Dave On Fri, 5 Jun 2020, 18:35 Joris Bo, <jorisbo@hotmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

No complains on the change,

I have recently searched for this LocatorConfig.xml after reading some posts, but could not find it in the mkgmap zip.

I like to visualize the one-way arrow differently for drive-left countries.

And for that reason want to use a different overlay line code which shifts the arrow to the other side of the road in the same direction.

Only because it looks nice for those who drive left.

I see in your example that this property is mentioned there 😉

So I wondered if it would be possible to get this information available within the style rules.

Kind regards and above all.. enjoy the weekend

Joris

The attached patch changes LocatorConfig.xml to reflect this change. Any complains?

Hi Gerd, It may not be clear if you only make maps for drive on right countries, but have a look at the attached images from a dual carriage way in Lusaka, Zambia is drive on left. If the type arrows are on the right of the carriageways the following is the result, at Low zoom level in BaseCamp the arrows are in the wrong direction. At medium zoom they are under the carriageways and at high zoom they are mixed together in the middle of the carriageways. This does not occur if the arrows are on the left. If you are only making maps covering one country it is fine but at a border post between countries of different drivesides there are likely to be one ways and the direction of the arrows would be important. Maps downloaded from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ would benefit from this in particular.

Hi Gerd, Putting the arrows on top of the way is the simplest but they interfere with the road names then. I used Joris' OSM styles for the map from which the examples came and as they were developed for drive on right countries the arrow conflicts had not been noticed before. For my own personal use I have just inverted the arrows but thought the feature would be handy.
