>> which is where Maperitive picks up its symbols from. Not quite, it's where the rule tells it to load the icon from. If you're using the default rules then these only use Mapnik icons at the moment. The JOSM icons are here http://josm.openstreetmap.de/svn/trunk/images/presets/ but I couldn't see a florist. However there is a florist symbol here http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/share/map-icons/ in the classic.big and classic.small folders. You can't use svg files in Maperitve yet, they need to be bitmaps. Did I not do a demo of this for you? Cheers,Steve

Unfortuntely it isn't in the list of symbols at http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/symbols which is where Maperitive picks up its symbols from. JOSM has a nice flower icon that looks fine, where can I find a florist symbol that Maperitive can use? For example http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/share/map-icons/svg/shopping/florist.svg Thanks John ---------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies -- _______________________________________________ Surf the Web in a faster, safer and easier way: Download Opera 9 at http://www.opera.com
