Hi Christian:

Right, this is the case. It's not a problem of map2rmap. It's a design flaw in
the RMAP
format. The map is referenced by 3-4 points. Those points are used for all
tiles and all
levels. Consequently a map area must include all tiles. Even those without a
map
content. And all levels must have the same bounding box.
Because of these flaws even CompeGPS does not sell single file maps. Due to the
used
64 bit offsets it would be possible, but because of theses flaws they have to
put the map
and the overview maps into single files. An as most countries are not
rectangular, they
have to partition a map into several sub-rectangles. TwoNav uses a XML file to
combine
all these files into a single map set.
