Hi all, I followed the discussion, but I am not sure about the results. My understanding so far: If you disable the basemap or if you don't like the basemap in the device you should either add the overview map to the gmapsupp file or use low resolution levels for each tile. I see no reason why we should not add the overview map to the gmapsupp if that is what the user wants and the device is working fine with it. Gerd

Hi Ralf,
What is the advantage of using more map tile levels instead of putting them into the overview map?
This is a standard design, supported by mkgmap and Garmin tools. Yours is not, so you have to do some additional work. Isn't it the reason, for which you have started this thread?
Have you tried a search for cities in eTrex? I think you can get double hits for cities present on overview map.
