Hi Greg,
I think I have posted my solution for speed limits here.
It is not showing an extra Speed icon but it shows the maxspeed as part of the
highway ref in the routing information.
highway=* & ref=* { addlabel '${ref} (${maxspeed} km/h)' | '${ref}' }

Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] Should we have a ADVANCED_DEFAULT Style?
I am trying to get custom ICONS to work with POI searches. Not quite there yet.
If I could look at an ADVANCED 'combination' style, I could see how a working
version of this feature is written and either copy that section and paste it
into mine, or just use the ADVANCED STYLE and comment out the tree and
milestone part. However, I might like your milestone addition and want to add
it to my maps. If I never saw anyone using milestones, I would have never
thought to add the feature to my maps.
I suspect that may of us are using 1-way arrows?, Bicycle lanes? Bridges?
I am still looking for SPEED LIMITS (but I am told that is not possible)
Still looking for multi-symbol highway labels (like I-94, US-12 and M-106) all
on the same road. Right know I have to use one common symbol and get
I-94,US-12,M-106 even though they should be 3 sepatate symbols.
Someone might have these features working, and we could all benefit from
sharing those ideas.

I doubt people want to keep their styles secret but I could be mistaken. It
is more likely that my styles and POI icons, or someone elses, are not ones you
would particularly care about. For example, I have special POIs for milestones
(common in Thailand), and assorted trees (trees common in Thailand) and style
rules that test for them and place them on my maps. In addition, everything I'm
developing is in a continual state of flux — I'm changing rules and icons all
the time as my ideas about what's important (or fun) to map change.
Would my styles and TYP file be of any interest to you?
If so, merely say the word and I'll post them in my Dropbox and send you the
links.
Best

I see many good questions about advanced mapping techniques and I am trying
to incorporate these ideas into my maps.
I was wondering if we could combine these ideas into a ADVANCED_DEFAULT
style?
I do not know if everyone wants to keep their own mapping styles secret,
but I have added to the default_style and do not mind sharing my own additions.
That way new mappers can analyze this code and get up to speed faster and
maybe be able to add more ideas to the community.
If you do not like a feature, you can always remove that piece of code.
My goal is to try to use mkgmap to map maps that look like Garmin City
Navigator.
So far I have added custom POI symbols for brand specific businesses (fuel,
fast food, resturants)
Added 1 way arrows
Added Bridges over ways
Added Bicycle lanes.
