Is any mapper using custom Icons, not displaying labels, but still allows GPS to search by labels?
I decided to use Custom ICONS for FAST FOOD (for example) So I display a McDonalds POINT, I don't want to show a label, because the symbol conveys the brand name. Yet I want to be able to SEARCH for FAST FOOD and see McDonalds show up in the list. Has anybody done this? I had asked a somewhat similar question and a fellow mapper used a BLANK POINT (0x2a07) for fast food and then overlays unique brand symbols on top of this. But since I am deleting the NAME tag, I don't think the search will work anymore Greg
You can set the icon's extended label to 'nolabel' in your TYP file. r Nick -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/Is-any-mapper-using-custom-Icons-not-displayi... Sent from the Mkgmap Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Nick, is that for the Language Label (0x04 english) label? Something you can add to your TYP file with TypWiz5 Will this remove the NAME tag from OSM (mkgmap:label:1) Greg On Tue, Mar 14, 2017 at 9:53 PM, nwillink <osm@pinns.co.uk> wrote:

Hi Greg No , nothing to do with the language label. With TYP files you can change the font size of your labels - confusingly they have been given the name :extended labels when you dbl click on an icon you can change the fontsize of your labels (extended labels) to small , large,normal, default and nolable Note that certain types do not respond to small,large,normal but only to default and nolabel When you select nolabel the icon label will not be displayed. It will *not *remove the mgmap:label so you can still search for it On 15/03/2017 22:21, greg crago wrote:
