Hi Gary,

not sure what you mean with "when I use the text file output" here. The device needs the *.typ format, it

doesn't understand the text file format. Or do you mean that you feed mkgmap with the text file format

and the resulting *.typ file doesn't work ?

Hi Gerd.

Thanks for the information. The problem gets a little stranger, I use a software package called TYPViewer ( v4.5.35 ) to edit the type files, it has two outputs, one produces a typ file the other produces a txt file. If I use the typ file output I get the map I expect ( without having to specify --transparent or --generate-sea=land-tag=natural=background ) the sea is where it should be, if I use the text file output from TYPViewer then I have problems.

Lessen to learn, use the typ file output.

Regards

Gary
