[mkgmap-dev] improve appeareance of footways leading to missing buildings

Hi Jose,

I think the special tag mkgmap:set_semi_connected_type was implemented to handle these ways.
Did you try to use that?

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] improve appeareance of footways leading to missing        buildings

hello all,

my etrex legend has only 8 mb available for custom maps so sacrificing buildings is an obvious choice. just removing the buildings from the style however results in something like this:

see that comb-shaped ways? those are usually bits leading to building entrances (here's the source: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/48.75978/17.82890). frankly, i don't really need them as they don't really carry any important information.

douglas-pecker does not help here so i wonder if anyone has an idea how this can be optimized. i still want to retain the footways, just don't want them to be too "hairy".

if this is not an easy task and involves too much coding then i will probably give up but before that i just wanted to ask if anyone has any idea.

thank you,

jose
