Hi Gerd,

Thanks, this is exactly what I need!

I tested "Node generated from" and it works as expected.
Before I couldn't determine if a node was generated from a way or a relation so 
my script always generated 2 href links (for both way and relation).
One link would work and the other not. Now I can always generate only one 
(correct!) link :)

See example.zip in attachment: log.txt is the original echotags text log. From 
this I generate a log.html at the end of every compile.
When you open log.html you can click on the link to open that element in OSM 
and quickly edit if needed.

I have no ready example for "(Joined)Way generated from" at the moment (I will 
test it when I find one),
but I think you can commit this change... :)

Hi Ranko,

I don't fully understand what you are trying to do. I fear this is not always possible to 
report the original element. For some ways with a so-called "fake id" there is 
no real element in OSM, e.g. the ways generated by the --precomp-sea  option.
Anyhow, I've also missed that feature in the past.
Attached is a quick hack to add either node,way, or relation after the string 
"generated from ". I didn't test it well. Please check if it helps to solve 
your problem.
The binary is here:

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] possible echotags enhancement?

Hello,

echotags style command displays the element type and original OSM-Id (as in "Node 
generated from <OSM-Id>").

Would it be possible to additionally display the original element type for all such 
"generated from" elements?
(Something like "Node generated from Way <OSM-Id>" or "Way generated from Relation 
<OSM-Id>")

Background:

At the end of my style file I use echotags to log elements left unhandled and 
then process this logfile to generate a html file with direct links to 
offending elements in OSM.
This way I can click and easily correct the data in OSM if needed.
A href tag generated this way looks like this: <a 
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/688658542";<https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/688658542>>OSM
 link</a>

To do this I need to detect the (original) element type from the echotags 
message (is it a node/way/relation),
but for "generated from" elements there is no way to detect this properly from 
the echotags message text.

For example: with the "--add-pois-to-areas" option a node is generated for each 
polygon or multipolygon.
However, the message is the same for both and there is no way to detect if the original element was 
a polygon ("way") or a multipolygon ("relation") :(

regards,
Ranko
