hi! I use custom codes (0x10e00 and such) and those lines render fine on top of any other road (I also use transparent background). Problem is in this situation: when road in OSM is directed from left to right, trail is rendered below the road: - - -_ _ _ - - - when road in OSM is directed from righ to left, trail is rendered above the road: ___-----___ As road directions in OSM are mostly random, trails render either below or above roads, which looks ugly (there is a quite large gap) when one road connects with other road. best regards Michal Rogala 2014-04-23 16:58 GMT+02:00 Minko <ligfietser@online.nl>:

I know what you mean, It is rendered like this: - - -_ _ _ - - -

To prevent this I use a important road type like 0x02 for cycle routes. This is always rendered on top (in the centre of the road axis). You can also use 0x01. Disadvantage is that these road type must be routable. If you dont make them routable it will cause routing errors. Another way is make a separate map layer with routes that can be switched on or off.

Hi!

I've a problem with rendering trails on my map. Trails in TYP files are defined with transparent background and off the road axis (below it) so they don't render on top of the real road.

But roads in OSM have pretty random direction (unless used with oneway=yes) and trails are rendered above real roads or below it depending of a road direction - this looks quite ugly and leaves empty gaps on road junctions.

Is is any way to force consistent rendering of such trail regardless of the road direction?

best regards
