As a followup on this discussion, you have to actually remove the
tabblock* files. Removing just the tabblock.dbfawk file is not
sufficient - the default values are applied to the tabblock* files,
with the tabblock.dbfawk file missing from the config folder.
Also, as a footnote, even though I do like the offline Tiger maps,
there are some shortcomings:
1. I noticed that city/town streets and county roads are not
differentiated. Bummer! I would like the county roads visible and
labeled *before* the streets are labeled as you zoom in. It would
take a major redo of the data in the edges.dbf file, me-thinks.
Maybe with some thought and the proper tools it might be feasible.
2. With the tabblock files gone, the city/town outlines disappear -
nice shading. Bummer! Again, a redo of the tabblock.dbf would
probably do the trick. Depending upon how many city/towns in a given
county, that might not be too hard.
Thoughts, anyone? Where am I not missing some important points?
( I really need to get out of digest mode. . . . . )
