[mkgmap-dev] Anyone determine which linetypes are NOT visable in BaseCamp?

Sat Feb 27 15:27:25 GMT 2016

Greg here,
Yes, I am using a TYP file. I have used up add TYP from 0x00-0x2f and was
trying to start using EXTENDED TYP numbers (0x10000-)
When I used 0x10000-0x10005) those lines were onlt 1 pixel wide in
BaseCamp. Visible yes, but not the way there were defined by my TYP file.
Dave sent me his EXTENDED TYP file and I am going to compare the TEXT
OUTPUT to my TEXT OUTPUT.

Maybe my TYP editor is not producing the correct TEXT format?

Greg
