[mkgmap-dev] POI (point) resolution problem

From Alexandre Loss alexandre.loss at gmail.com on Sun Feb 14 22:09:26 GMT 2016

Hi Gerd,

I done the 2xCtrl-G and the problem persist.

Recapping, I tested with default style to make sure to use the standard.
If you need examples, you can test with aeroway=airport (0x2f04) that  is
one type of POI that works as expected (resolution is reflected in the
img); and amenity=police (0x3001) which is one where change resolution in
points file doesn't have any effect.
