Curious behaviour of map text

Hi all i'm experimenting with housenumber display in my maps. To do this, i added in my point style file this statement : addr:housenumber=* { set name='${addr:housenumber}' } [0x1e04 resolution 24 ] But if i do this, all other text is vanished, i.e street names, village names etc, only housenumbers are displayed both in map source and on my device. Any idea whats going wrong ? regards Manfred

Hi Manfred, when you add that rule at the beginning I would expect that all points which have the tag addr:housenumber are added as 0x1e04 and since you did not use continue you should not expect any other details. Still, your rule should not change street names.

Hi Gerd as you suggested, i added the continue statement to the directive, but, its still not working properly. Without that line, i can see nearly at all relevant zoom-levels street and city names both on mapsource or my GPSMAP 276Cx, with that line, on MapSource the city names will only be displayed at lower zoom levels (let say starting at 1km, 1.5 km and above) but on device they still are not visible. BTW, as the housenumbers are shown on the device with really big letters, i will forgot this option as it will make the maps on my device nearly unreadable :'( But anyway, its strange ...

Hi 0x1e04 is a strange choice for an house number point. 0x1e00 is "State" and has a big font and might not support sub-types Ticker On Fri, 2019-03-29 at 13:32 +0100, DD8KQ wrote:
