Hi,

I live along the border of Germany and Austria. It would be very useful to see more than one vectormap at the time. With mapforge 0.3 it should be possible to show more than one map. What is to do to select 2 or more maps in locus?

Thanks pit

Hi Pit, as Menion said it's a wish, not yet reality in mapsforge 0.3.0.
For the time being you can cope with this problem possibly with maps produced by Menion as they contain a certain overlap at the borders and so you are a bit flexible when to switch from one to the other map.
However I agree with this wish.

yes, that's reason why around all maps is at least 10km border. So all maps overlap a little so there is no need to switch maps when you live near some country borders. And about Germany, Netherland and France maps - all are separated in downloading system but I'm currently generating complete states. This was 1. not possible with previous MapsForge library and 2. size of these files was really huge. Now it's much better. Only issue is that I generated France 18! hours. Now it's generating Germany. When all will be done, I'll place them for download ...
