In my experience, Mapnik renders the semicolon as-is, rather than creating a shield/marker for each individual route number. But don't exceed a certain quantity of characters, because then it won't render a shield at all. The limit is different for the various values of the "highway" tag: it was 6 and 8 characters when I bitched about it some years back: http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/937 Anyway...yet another example of how this practice of cramming every last bit of highway network metadata into the value field of a "ref" tag has its limitations... _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
