Charlie, thanks for your response.
I have been doing a few controlled tests and I am now fairly sure that it is the GPSMap62s that will not display the 'extended' polygon codes.
What I did was to compile a map using the 'default' style with r1979 together with a very simple TYP defining only 'leisure=playground [0x24 resolution 24]' (at draw level 7). This displayed correctly.
Then I simply edited the 'polygons' file line to read 'leisure=playground [0x10103 resolution 24]' and suitably changed the TYP. In this case the polygon was NOT displayed. In both cases I used only the minimal arguments in the mkgmap compile command line.
I will try to put a small GMAPSUPP.IMG online somewhere for others to confirm.
Conversely, it would be good if I could test a build that someone else has made using an extended polygon code.
Bill.
You can download a gmapsupp.img from http://www.cferrero.net/maps/gcc_downloads.html that includes lots of extended type polygons (land background, archeological sites, woods, gardens etc). You can get the TYP that is used here: http://www.cferrero.net/maps/map_downloads.html -- Charlie
