Hi,

In all pois that can contain extra info fields for address information, a 
default city is automatically created by mkgmap (if it isn't already there in 
osm). Sometimes those place names contains the wrong cityname, so I wonder if 
there is a way to lookup a more correct cityname from the polygons style file, 
before this mkgmap process kicks in.

For instance, I would like to add a statement in the points style file like 
addr:city which looksup the correct city name from the polygons style file, if 
a poi that lies within a polygon with the tags place=city/town/village (or 
boundary=city/..) or even landuse=residential (with a name). Or maybe even from 
multipolygons created from administrative boundaries (like municipalities)?

For my custom map, I created transparent polygons for those areas, and in 
Mapsource the name of place=city etc shows up if I point with the mouse to a 
certain area within the polygon. So I wonder if it is possible to combine those 
names with the pois. Any ideas?

Cheers, Minko
