This did the trick!

Thanks a lot for your great support.

Hi Rheinskipper,

okay, mkgmap writes the last description into the gmapsupp, sp please try this:
java -XX:+UseCompressedOops -Xmx2800m -jar ..\mkgmap\mkgmap.jar -c 
..\mkgmap_settings.txt -c ..\tiles\template.args --description=xyz --gmapsupp 
2>..\err2.txt
without the gmapsupp option in the mkgmap_settings.txt

Gerd

Ups, last line of my mkgmap_settings.txt should be
gmapsupp

I accidently deleted this line while cleaning file from unnecessary commented 
out options for the post.

My gmapsupp.img is used on marine devices or homeport pc program. It can be 
downloaded here:

Hi rheinskipper,

I don't see an option to create a gmapsupp,nsis or tdbfile in your 
mkgmap_settings.txt.
What command / tool do you use to install the map on the pc or on the device?

Gerd

Hi Gerd,

The hint does not work for me. My map also has an unwanted name from 
cities15000 (last entry from template.args).


I run mkgmap with this command:

java -XX:+UseCompressedOops -Xmx2800m -jar ..\mkgmap\mkgmap.jar -c 
..\mkgmap_settings.txt -c ..\tiles\template.args 2>..\err2.txt


mkgmap_settings.txt contains this:

style-file=../styles
style=oseam
family-name=OpenSeaMap
series-name=OpenSeaMap
description=OpenSeaMap
mapname=OpenSeaMap
country-name=Europe
area-name=Europe
family-id=8800
product-id=1
copyright-file=../copyright.txt
draw-priority=20
latin1
order-by-decreasing-area
lower-case
precomp-sea=../planet/sea.zip
name-tag-list='name,name:de,name:latin,name:en'

Hi Greg,

you probably missed my additional hint about the position of the option. I 
tried this command (uses default style)
java -ea -Xmx1024M -jar d:\MKGMAP\dist\mkgmap.jar --family-id=665 
--family-name="Ohio" --product-id=3 --series-name="OH_1-5THIN_BC" 
--area-name="My_maps" --gmapsupp --latin1 --index --x-split-name-index 
--bounds=f:\osm\bounds.zip --location-autofill=bounds,is_in,nearest 
--housenumbers --overview-mapname=OH-ov --overview-mapnumber=12380000 
--remove-ovm-work-files --check-styles --min-size-polygon --route 
--drive-on=detect,right --check-roundabouts --check-roundabout-flares 
--remove-short-arcs --add-pois-to-areas --add-pois-to-lines 
--pois-to-areas-placement="entrance=main;entrance=yes;building=entrance" 
--generate-sea=extend-sea-sectors,multipolygon,floodblocker,close-gaps=6000 
--make-poi-index --process-destination --process-exits --tdbfile --poi-address 
--verbose -c template.args

and I see the string "OH_1-5THIN_BC" in the *.tdb file and in the gmapsupp.img.

I am using "--series-name="OH_1-5THIN_BC" (you can see in my mkgmap command, 
pasted previously) and I do not see this label in BaseCamp nor on my Garmin 
Montana 600. You can see that I never specify "US-Mansfield" (which is the 
label I see in BaseCamp and on my GPS) in either my splitter command nor my 
mkgmap command, so I assume it is coming from cities15000.zip (from the 
splitter side)

Ahh, ok, that should be --series-name. The help says:
--series-name
        This name will be displayed in MapSource in the map selection
        drop-down. The default is "OSM map".

I understand that --geonames labels individual map tiles with the largest city 
name in 'cities15000.zip'.

I am trying to generate a gmap for each state in the USA. The example I gave 
was for the state of OHIO. The generated gmap file, when opened in BaseCamp and 
my Garmin Montana 600, has the label "US-Mansfield" instead of "OH" or one of 
the other labels I was trying to associate with this gmap of OHIO. It is very 
confusing because I am generating about 10 states, and each one has a label 
that seems to be extracted from the cities15000.zip.

How do I control the text I see in BaseCamp or on a Garmin GPS when I look at 
the list of installed gmaps?

Hi Greg,

I am not sure what you want to achive. When you use the option --geonames-file 
in splitter
it adds location specific description options for each fie in the generated 
template.args:
mapname: 63240001
description: ET-Addis Ababa
input-file: 63240001.osm.gz

If you edit those lines before using it in mkgmap you probably get what you 
want.
Of course it makes no sense to do this each time when you run splitter, so I 
suggest to
keep the modified file and pass it to splitter with the --split-file.
While OSM data grows you have to repeat the process.
I see no easy way to automate that with a script.

Another option could be to modify the content of the cities file.

I am trying to label different maps for each state and the map name seems to be 
comming from cities15000.zip

Here is my splitter command:

java -Xmx1024m -Xms1024m -ea -jar 
\MKGMAP\splitter-r560\splitter-r560\splitter.jar --max-nodes=700000 
--handle-element-version=keep --mapid="12380000" 
--geonames-file=\MKGMAP\cities15000.zip --description=OH-greg --max-areas="255" 
--no-trim --status-freq="600" ohio-latest.osm.pbf
pause

Here is my mkgamp command:

java -ea -Xmx1024M -jar \MKGMAP\mkgmap-r3742\mkgmap-r3742\mkgmap.jar --gmapsupp 
--mapname=Ohio --description="OH_1-5THIN_BC" --latin1 --index 
--x-split-name-index --bounds=\MKGMAP\bounds.zip 
--location-autofill=bounds,is_in,nearest --housenumbers 
--overview-mapname=OH-ov --overview-mapnumber=12380000 --remove-ovm-work-files 
--style-file=\MKGMAP\BaseCamp-style\openmapchest --check-styles --family-id=665 
--family-name="Ohio" --product-id=3 --series-name="OH_1-5THIN_BC" 
--area-name="My_maps" --min-size-polygon --route --drive-on=detect,right 
--check-roundabouts --check-roundabout-flares --remove-short-arcs 
--add-pois-to-areas --add-pois-to-lines 
--pois-to-areas-placement="entrance=main;entrance=yes;building=entrance" 
--generate-sea=extend-sea-sectors,multipolygon,floodblocker,close-gaps=6000 
--make-poi-index --process-destination --process-exits --tdbfile --poi-address 
--verbose -c template.args master_thin.txt
pause

I have used 'description' 'mapname' ' family name' 'series-name' I still cannot 
seem to get my maps to be labeled correctly.

In BaseCamp v4.6.2 the map is labeled "US-Mansfield" and on my Garmin Montana 
600 it is also labeled "US-Mansfield"
