Actually I'm just looking to ditch the bloody rounded ends on the UK maps ... It's not something I recognise as 'UK style' ... someone invented it ... On OSMAND it makes the road and motorway numbers difficult to read ( and OSMAND has lost the green roads which is something I'm trying to get back there as well! :) ) One thing which I still find a problem is that 'B' roads in the UK are 'yellow', not the unclassified ones so I'd like to loose the orange back to yellow and then correct the problem that having half of the local short cuts difficult to see and other less useful ones highlighted. This is probably simply that the wrong tagging is being used, but some of these smaller roads are essentially main routes so tagging as a 'service road' is correct for the local usage, but not for main stream routing and where the likes of OSMAND simply gets the routing wrong ... as do other routers :( -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
