Osmand on Ipad IpadOS 14.3 - Road numbers

[Tim Kendal]

I've recently lost all road numbers!  All the roads are shown but no numbers, whatever the zoom level.

Everything else seems to be ok.  Is there a setting to turn these on and off.  I'm in UK.

Could it be the map style? I'm noticing on an iPad that Topo and Offroad (for example) don't seem to show the road numbers, whereas OsmAnd and LightRS (for example) do.

Thanks!  You are onto something there, but it's not the same on my installation.  I have 9 Map Styles to choose from and only one of these, LightRS, shows road numbers.  OsmAnd, and the others, do not.    

I don't really like LightRS, and it has only 7 "Map Style" options compared to 9 with the default OsmAnd Map Type.   One of the MapStyle options  I use is Road Style, and I often switch from the default to "German Road Atlas" as in certain situations it is clearer.  But I can't do this when using LightRS as the Style, as Road Style is not available!

I'm sure this has all changed recently, though I can't be sure when the change took place.  It does seem strange that the default, OsmAnd Map Style does not now have road numbers, and I'm sure that it used to include them!

Again, thanks for your interest

I don't have an answer.  On my iPad Mini running 14.4 and OsmAnd 3.90.2, using a newly downloaded UK Scotland map (created 1/31/21) and the OsmAnd style, I'm seeing highway signs. Trying different options in the Map menu, I can't find a way to hide those signs. The same is true with the California map (7/30/20).

Thanks Barft for your comments.  As no-one else has responded, I have sent a question to Support at Osmand - I'll forward a copy of there reply if it provides a solution

Just to let you know, I'm waiting for a detailed reply from Support, but in the meantime found that the app kept crashing for some unknown reason - perhaps something I did but I don't know what!

So I've reinstalled the app from the Appstore, and surprise surprise the road numbers are now there in the Osmand map type as well as in LightRS.  

In addition to downloading the app, I also had to download my maps which took a while, but that's no bad thing as I did not have them on auto-update so they were rather old!

Thanks for the update--and glad to know the problem is solved.
