[mkgmap-dev] RE Commit r3801: merge split-shape branch

From Ticker Berkin rwb-mkgmap at jagit.co.uk on Wed Feb 15 22:06:09 GMT 2017

Hi Mike

I think this is just a problem with the rules the tool you are using to
show the image conflicting with what --order-by-decreasing-area aims to
achieve on a Garmin device.

For instance, observations of GPSMapEdit shows it renders smaller
polygons on top of larger ones as the way of deciding what is shown.
--order-by-decreasing-area has split polygons geographical and so this
size-based rule becomes meaningless and can result in what you are
seeing.

Given it didn't crash, I hope I've understood what your original
problem was and fixed it in split-shape branch.

Regards
Ticker
