Hi! I was recently working on the town search issues. So please verify if you still have problems with current svn version of navit and a map of Feb, 21, 2013 or newer one.
Though I think there shouldnt anyway be duplicate towns in search unless you are using more than one map at a time. If you have more than one map enabled, try disabling unneded ones(even for completely different regions). You can verify what maps do you have by checking Settrings->Maps. I have just added processing of administrative subdivisions for Spain, Ukraine, United Kingdom, USA with http://navit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/navit?view=revision&revision=5391, also we were supporting these divisions for Germany and Russia for a while. Subdivision info would be displayed as the second line of each item found. Map supporting new administrative divisions should be available since Feb, 24, 11am UTC. Please report if implemented divisions are acceptable for these countries. tryagain 22.02.2013, 09:24, "[email protected]" <[email protected]>: > HI all > > I have also faced the same issue, > I know there are many cities with the same name. > e.g. santa clara. there are 5 santa clara in united states. > can navit provide a data of which santa clara is it referring to. > this will become easy for user to select any one out of it. > > Regards > > Jojawar Jagdish > ________________________________________ > From: [email protected] [[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, February 22, 2013 04:32 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Navit-users] City/town shows twice in search box > > On 21/02/13 22:56, [email protected] wrote: >> On Thu, Feb 21, 2013 at 05:32:43PM +0000, >> [email protected] wrote: >>> When I search in Navit for a city or town - many times I get multiple >>> results.
