Hi there,

I'm trying to import an SVG file describing the provinces of Belgium in Roassal.
I've cleaned an SVG file found on wikipedia and trying to import it.

I'm trying to imitate the way it is done with Countries. So:

RTMapBuilder class>>provincesOfBelgium
�� ^ #(#antwerp #brussels #eastFlanders #flemishBrabant #hainaut #liege #limburg #luxembourg #namur #walloonBrabant #westFlanders)

and implemented to corresponding SVG paths. Here's one example:

RTSVGPath class>> antwerp
�� ^'m 177.419,25.0693 1.379,-3.5593 -2.986,-1.3778 -3.33,0.5742 -0.114,-3.1001 -4.019,-4.0187 1.492,-5.9704 -2.181,-2.8706 -1.952,-0.2298 -1.034,-1.2628 -2.411,5.1667 -3.673,3.7892 -3.101,-2.067 -5.396,1.378 -2.068,-1.8371 4.479,-0.9188 0.345,-5.1667 -6.2,-2.1815 -4.938,5.741 0.114,2.8704 -8.611,-0.574 1.264,-5.5112 -5.397,0 -6.43,3.4444 1.263,4.5929 2.411,2.7555 -1.492,2.6409 -4.478,-0.6891 0.115,-2.7555 -6.43,0.3443 0,2.4112 2.296,0.5743 -0.345,5.5112 3.904,1.0336 -3.1,3.3295 3.056,7.4863 0.504,5.9475 -7.923,0.2296 -2.985,3.1002 1.722,1.837 -0.114,3.5595 2.889,0.4893 3.352,-0.9423 7.038,4.5375 3.704,-0.5553 1.759,1.7593 3.149,-1.7593 4.075,2.1297 2.963,-3.6118 11.112,-1.7592 0.092,3.3337 11.576,-3.6113 1.204,-3.0562 5.001,-0.8332 2.129,-3.8894 4.723,-0.7409 0.741,-1.9448 2.223,0.8336 1.481,-0.8336 0.186,-4.9079 -4.075,-2.0373 1.605,-5.4063 z'.

Apparently the path parser doesn't conform to specs?

in the code I see a nice comment "The description of SVG path, says that M and m may accept more than one coordinates. In practices, this is rarely the case. "

This also applies for other commands that should support multiple coordinates.

anyway, try this (I made all line-to commands explicit):

��Is there a README somehwere or the original file that was used to generate the world map of the examples?

The chapter for MapBuilder hasn't been done yet, but it is planned. :)
