This is obviously wrong but easily overlooked. Since it's already
mentioned on the
wiki page of the plugin I wonder why this behaviour is still present.
Hi Floris,
I am the author and it will help to understand how others are using
the plugin. I developed to fit local conventions where postal codes
change zero to one time along a street. For that case, the address
interpolation way should be split, just as would be done if the maxspeed
changes along the street. If the postal code changes many times
within a street, the postal code would need to be entered manually
afterward anyway. I normally just collect all addresses on a single
street rather than several addresses across a large area. For that
case, I would need to repeatedly enter the same postal code information
each time.
There may be ways that the plugin is useful I didn't think of: such
as entering all POIs collected along a trip route; each one could have a
different postal code.
Please describe how it's used in your case, and something could be
stored in preferences to change its behavior.
Regards,
Mike
