Hi, i am having problem with merging garmin image files that i have generated from osm. I have also generated a image with contourlines. I am trying to merge them together, and there is no problem merging them, but the name of the map changes to "OSM street map" and there is only 1 "layer" or what they should be called, showing in a Garmin GPS unit. I have merged maps together a lot of times and then i have got like Countrymap as one option and Contourlines as another option in the map settings in gps unit. But now i don't get it working, maybe i am missing something. I am using this on the country image file: --latin1 --draw-priority=20 --route --process-destination --process-exits --drive-on-right --check-roundabouts --road-name-pois --make-poi-index --adjust-turn-headings --preserve-element-order --make-opposite-cycleways --remove-ovm-work-files --location-autofill="bounds, nearest, is_in" --levels="0:24, 1:22, 2:20, 3:18" --overview-levels="4:17, 5:16, 6:15, 7:14, 8:12" --max-jobs=2 --product-id="1" --family-id="355" --mapname="33110000" --country-name=SWEDEN" --country-abbr="SWE" --description="Sweden OSM map by Malmis" --series-name="Sweden OSM map" --area-name="Sweden" --family-name="Sweden OSM" --show-profiles=1 --tdbfile --gmapsupp -c template.args And using this on the contourlines image file: --draw-priority=30 --transparent --merge-lines --levels="0:24, 1:23, 2:22, 3:20, 4:18" --family-name="Contourlines" --series-name="Contourlines" --code-page=1252 --latin1 --max-jobs=2 --tdbfile --show-profiles=1 --gmapsupp --mapname=333 --description=Sweden-Contourlines --area-name=Sweden contourdir/srtm/*.osm.pbf then when i merge them i use this: --gmapsupp contourdir/srtm/gmapsupp.img countrydir/gmapsupp.img / Kristoffer

Hi Welcome to the list.
I am trying to merge them together, and there is no problem merging them, but the name of the map changes to "OSM street map" and there is only 1 "layer" or what they should be called, showing in a Garmin GPS unit.
--gmapsupp contourdir/srtm/gmapsupp.img countrydir/gmapsupp.img
To change the name from 'OSM street map', use the --description option when combining files too. --description="Sweden OSM map" --gmapsupp contourdir/srtm/gmapsupp.img countrydir/... If you want the street map and the contour map to be separate, I think you will need to set family-id to something different in the contour map. I'm sure that someone else will know more about how to achieve what you want than me. ..Steve
