thx, I got it figured out for towns/villages to show at a lower resolution. Road labels still have me puzzled.   I know how to control the level/resolution for the road, but how can I get labels at a lower resolution, or more labels? I don't use Basecamp, I use QMapshack and a Garmin Montana.

Hi Brad, there are many factors: - Style for mkgmap, used for compiling. It defines maximum level of an object and the content of a label. Some markers in label can hide a part of a label, depending on zoom level. - TYP file attached to mapset. It defines graphics of an object, size and

Yes, what Arndt writes is correct, for most pois Basecamp decides when it shows up. But there are some pois that Basecamp does not control, so you can use mkgmap to set those levels. I don't have a list of which pois are controlled by Basecamp, it is always a matter of trial and error.

With hardwired I mean next:For exampel:amenity=fuel [0x2f01 resolution 22] and detail level "middle".The gas stations disapper at 70m. But the switch between resolution 24 and 23 is at 300m and between 23 and 22 at 500m. Sure, a higher detail level and the station will disappear later, but not at

Hi, I think it depends on the selected map detail level what labels are rendered. Gerd Von: mkgmap-dev im Auftrag von Arndt Röhrig Gesendet: Samstag, 1. Dezember 2018 11:34 An: Development list for mkgmap; lig fietser; brad Betreff: Re: [mkgmap-dev]

Hi all,My observation is, that ome POIs are hard-wired in BaseCamp. They care little about "resolution." On an Oregon and certainly other Garmins, there is an option to zoom scales. If you place there 200m all POIs uses this value.GreetzArndtlig fietser hat am 1. Dezember 2018 um 09:28

About levels, you can specify resolution or level in your style files For example tourism=hotel [0x2b01 resolution 24] 24 means that a hotel appears only in the highest zoom level If you specify 20 it appears from zoom 20 or higher. If you specify 20-22 it appears only in that range, so not on
