Hi Brett,<br>
<br>
an issue with the index on a Garmin device is that it requires
specific codes for specific items. For a comparison of Garmin models
and the use/appearance of codes, see
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types</a> - In
most cases, the meaning is the same for different models.<br>
<br>
In your command, you use<br>
--style-file=styles\mapnik\ ^<br>
i.e. a relative path to the style, and a final backslash. Are you
sure that the "correct" style was used (e.g. when you inspect your
map with QLandkarte)? I use absolute path, without a final
backslash, but that might be irrelevant.<br>
<br>
It is also my impression that Garmin uses all maps (even those which
were switched off) when a POI search is performed - try to remove
them as much as possible (I change the extension from *.IMG to *.IM)
- I haven't tried that with the base map yet...<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Bernhard <br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi</div>

</div>
<div dir="ltr">Time to follow up on this issue from some time
back as I have not found any solutions. It would be good to
have the index search feature refined. Anyway here is it
again. Thanks for your consideration. <br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have loaded my latest img made using 2800 of mkgmap and
a custom style along with typ file on to a Garmin Rino 650.
This unit has only ever had the OSM maps that I have
created on it. The POI lookup has been causing me a few
issues in the past with my 62S being much better but that
might be due to it having Garmin's own Topo map loaded. I
am at a loss how and what index from what img file my
Garmins use.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyway, the problem is nothing comes up when I select all
POI so I went into geographical features and then water
features to find a lake. No water features showed up. I
then selected land features and then could find the lake
that I was after. It appears that at least on the Rino 650
the POI index has issues. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It the above a known problem with mkgmap or is their
something wrong with my style and/or typ file? I use the
following bat in Windows 7 to create the img.</div>
