</div>Right, I take my words back. Some symbol codes, such as "Ground Transport"<br>
in the Find Places menu, are overloaded. If we want bus stops, tram stops,<br>
underground stations, bus stations, and train stations appear there nicely,<br>
the only way we can distinguish them is by a name prefix or suffix.<br>
<br>
On the other hand, if my findings on the Edge 705 apply to all recent Garmin<br>
models, there are plenty of spare symbols for restaurants and lodging. No<br>
need to add Hotel/Hostel/Motel/whatever to the name; each can have their own<br>
Find Places submenu. The default title of these spare codes in the Edge 705<br>
is "Other". I haven't tried playing with TYP files yet, but I would assume<br>
that the submenu names can be overridden.</blockquote><div>No the submenu structure can't be overrriden - well it can but only at the cost that you can't search for the POIs anymore. Hostel/Motel/Hotel actually is a special case that allows for many different symbols while still being searchable. <br>

</div>I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. Can you elaborate a little,<br>
or give an example (using some made-up syntax)?</blockquote><div><br>I.e. if you wan't to add tracktype to each ways name at the end it is easier by doint tracktype=grade1 {add name grade1} then by adding this to each line (i.e. highway=track & tracktype=grade1 name ({name} grade1)<br>
