Hi! I am trying to figure out what the --transparent parameter does exactly. I am aware that it suppresses the creation of the backround rectangle with id 0x4B. But it also seems to influence an element of a file header in TREHeader.config(), setting poiDisplayFlags |= POI_FLAG_TRANSPARENT; I could not figure out what this part means. What does this code do? When is it called? Does it influence the handling of the map on the device? bye Nop

Does really nobody know what --transparent does? bye Nop Nop schrieb:

It's been discussed already. It creates a map without background polygon, and sets the tranparency bit to transparent (as you could do with gmaptool). You can read up on naviboard "transparent" or other forums about all the implications this has.
