I think that neither Garmin nor cgpsmapper compiler do this, but would there be a possibility to start some lines only in resolution 20, while the rest of the map is starting at 24?
I have just looked at the source. Guess what, it is already in there!
The syntax should be
[0x01 resolution Max-Min] e.g. [0x01 resolution 24-21] [0x01 resolution 20-16]
I have not tested this, just read this from the source.

Okay, so however this would mean on can only use one type per "line" - or can I put highway=* [0x01 resolution 24-21] [0x02 resolution 20-16] ???
-- Regarding why would I like to route with Mapsource? 1. Etrex cannot have any route with more than ~ 100 direction changes without via poing - without running out of memory on route calculation. Mapsource currently does about twice to three times the distance, and much easier to check whether route is working well or not. Why no online service? There simply is no online router that is easily configurable to take 500 tags into account when routing, with mkgmap this is doable!!! So for mtb/cycle autorouting, the dreaded Mapsource is currently the best tool (for long distances gpsmapedit routes much better, but no possibility to export the routes (which are of great quality), I contacted Konstantin and asked him whether he could implement to save routes as tracks with all via points, or something similar (then one could use WinGdB to make a perfect route for GPS/Mapsource out of the track) but he has not implemented it (yet).
My main use for this is based on routes, so at least for relations I just thought about (well know it will work) a way that it will work. I will simply put into relations file lines like route=bicycle {add multilevel=1; add route=bicycle....} then in my lines file I can simply use the newly created key "multilevel=1" to use a different layout. So currently creating a multilevel map, will work fine for all lines that are originally relations. This should cover 95% of what I want to achieve.
