As of revision 18423 osmarender (the renderer used by ti...@home) does too. It even renders name and ele(vation) if available. > Problem here: JOSM simply displays a bridge like icon, but doesn't care > about the direction (north, south, ...). Osmarender does the same for single nodes... > A "correct renderer" should display a mountain pass somehow like a > bridge usually is displayed, following the direction of the way. ... but aligns the icon along the way if the way is tagged with a track or highway tag. This is implemented with a wayMarker rule as mentioned by Dodi and uses a symbol very similar to the one mentioned by Ulfl. > As the mountain_pass is tagged as a node, it's unfortunately not that > easy to get that direction, so renderers simply tend to ignore this tag > completely :-( Once a significant amount of the nodes without a way attached have a tag indicating direction I can add that to osmarender as well.
