I dont know if this is a bug or a setting that I haven't used correctly, but if I use --transparent in combination with some lines that are also present in the overview map levels, they are visible at lower zoom too: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5eg4470narcbm70/transparent.jpg The thinner lines need to be rendered only in the overview map levels. Somehow you can still see the overview map behind the normal tiles in Mapsource/Basecamp. In my lines style I have the following lines: route=hoofd [0x10601 resolution 15-18 continue] route=hoofd [0x10602 resolution 19] route=alternatief [0x10603 resolution 15-18 continue] route=alternatief [0x10604 resolution 19] options file levels = 0:24, 1:23, 2:22, 3:20, 4:18 overview-levels = 5:17, 6:15, 7:14
Hi Minko,
if I use --transparent in combination with some lines that are also present in the overview map levels, they are visible at lower zoom too
This is probably only problem of Mapsource, you see overview map because detailed map is transparent. I get similar results when using cgpsmapper. I think you need background object to hide overview map. Try for example create non-transparent map and then only set transparency flag in img. -- Best regards, Andrzej
Thanks Andrzej, Your method works. First create the map without --transparent and install it in Mapsource. Then set the transparency flag on the img with gmaptool. This method doesn't show the ovm lines underneath anymore.

Hi Minko, I am not sure if the transparent flag has a meaning in overview maps, but it is not set in r2998. The attached patch for trunk changes this. A compiled binary is here: http://files.mkgmap.org.uk/download/176/mkgmap.jar Please let me know if it solves your problem. Gerd

Thanks for your help Gerd, but it didnt solve the problem. With some workarounds I can live with this issue though.
