The mapsforge team is very kind and open for comments

OK, seems to be appropiate.

If you want to debug the themes just install the mapviewer.apk from mapsforge on your phone, this app produces real error-popups and not only a black screen.
But be carefull, it caches even erratic themes so you must switch back to the osmarender theme, upload the new theme and switch to these.

was very helpful. Placing

Code:


   .....
      <!-- cycleway matches ways with a "highway=cycleway" tag -->
      <rule e="way" k="highway" v="cycleway" zoom-min="13">
              <line stroke="#8800FF" stroke-width="0.2" stroke-dasharray="15,5" stroke-linecap="butt"/>
          </rule>


</rendertheme>


at the end of the themefile renders simple cycleways in advancedmapviewer as well as in oruxmaps.
I will discuss the problems with relations with mapsforge.

Thanks Christian

Hello Christian,

I took a look to the structure of the OSM, and you are perfect right - the only way to render cycleways (or hikingways etc.) seems to be resolving of relations.
For the international cycling way along the river Danube I found several nested relations and actualy there is no support for this in Mapsforge.

There are tickets open for this issue at Mapsforge, but none of them marked as high priority
So we have to wait, but I'm in doubt that this task could be done on a mobile device.

Another aproach would be to preprocess OSM-Data to resolve the relations and convert them to simple ways (write the specific tags direct to the <way>), but ... pfuuhh... anyone out here who could do this..

regards
Chris
