The display isn't ideal, but it's SO much easier than any of the other methods. Another solution, not as easy (but maybe still easier than OsmAndMapCreator plus a custom renderer) is using QGIS to make a tiled map that you can use as an underlay or overlay map. I wrote a couple of posts on that a while back: http://shallowsky.com/blog/mapping/osmand-making-overlay-maps.html http://shallowsky.com/blog/mapping/qgis-categorized.html ...Akkana -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OsmAnd" group.
