Anyone determine which linetypes are NOT visable in BaseCamp?
Running BaseCamp ver 4.6.1 and have determined that it will not display linetype 0x17,0x31,0x32 and 0x34 anyone got a complete list of linetypes to avoid if you want you mkgmap to look correct in Basecamp? Will it show extended linetypes >=0x010000 ? Greg
Hi Greg, there is no consistency in a way Garmin's devices display different objects. Even if you see something in BaseCamp it doesn't mean that this object will be visible on nuvi or outdoor device. There are some informations for meaning of objects (poi, lines, areas), which you can find on some web pages, for example: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Polyline_Types http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Editing_OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Area_Types As a general rule I suggest to follow description in cGPSmapper manual: http://cgpsmapper.com/manual.htm Usually maps contain a TYP file, which define graphics for objects. This somehow unify map view for different devices. I think TYP allows for viewing some objects, that otherwise would be invisible. -- Best regards, Andrzej
I realize that not all linetypes are visible in all GPS units. Since map development is easiest when I can see my results quickly, using BaseCamp is a great tool to see my results without having to download .img files to my GPS every 10 minutes. Do any of you 'mappers' have a TEST MAP file containing ALL POSSIBLE LINETYPES so I can use it and view in BaseCamp, or any GPS device to determine a USEFUL SET of visible LINETYPES. I think this would be a good to for mappers to have, otherwise, every time you want to add a new linetype, you have to see if it is visible in BaseCamp (or whatever software you are using) AND you need to verify that linetype is also visible in your GPS unit. I realize this 'test area' would have to exists in 1 location in the world, but you could make in the the ocean somewhere and just give coordinates so other mappers can find it. Has anyone else determined additional non visible linetypes in BaseCamp besides 0x17,0x31,0x32 and 0x34? Greg On Thu, Feb 25, 2016 at 8:48 AM, Andrzej Popowski <popej@poczta.onet.pl> wrote:

Thank you, that worked well. In BaseCamp v4.6.1 linetype 0x17,0x2c,0x30-0x3f are NOT VISIBLE. Attached is a map that I changed all COLORS for lines and polygons to RED, except for the background container 0x4b is white. This map is located NE of London The Garmin Montana 600 can see linetypes 0x00-0x3f and polygons 0x01-0x7f Has anyone got EXTENDED linetype to be visible in BaseCamp? I used 0x10001-0x10005 but they show up as thin lines only (no thickness) Greg On Thu, Feb 25, 2016 at 10:09 AM, Gerd Petermann < GPetermann_muenchen@hotmail.com> wrote:

I am using line types 0x10000 through 0x1001b for various lines and they all display in BC and on my Montana. 0x10000 and 0x10001 are the oneway arrows that display alongside ways that are oneway. Of course, I have the styles defined in my lines file and the hexadecimal codes are in a custom TYP file. Hope this helps.

Hi Dave,
it seems you don't understand the meaning of TYP file.
It is used to define how POI / lines / areas are displayed (in Basecamp and the device).
Such a file is not part of the mkgmap distribution, don't know why, maybe the reason
is that some devices don't support TYP files, maybe it's because programmers aren't
much interested in it ;-)
You can find samples in other wellknown styles, e.g. here:

Huh? I can define the width of a way, its color, whether it is dashed or solid in my TYP file. Are you saying I don't need a TYP file to make a dashed, brown line of width 5 pixels with hex code 0x1007 that is then assigned via a style rule to an OSM way? If I do not then I agree; I don't understand anything about TYP files. Can you explain in a little more detail what you are trying to tell me?

Hi Dave, sorry, I think I got you wrong. I thought you don't use a TYP file. I guess I should have checked older posts before... So does that mean that you have lines defined in the TYP file as visible and still Basecamp doesn't show them ?

Gerd, I think you were confused addressing your reply to Dave, instead you should have replied it to Greg Crago. I find those discussions via mailing lists very confusing too. So question to Greg, are you using a TYP file? This should help to make those lines visible. ----- Oorspronkelijk bericht -----

Hi Dave,
sorry, I think I got you wrong. I thought you don't use a TYP file.
I guess I should have checked older posts before...
So does that mean that you have lines defined in the TYP file as visible
and still Basecamp doesn't show them ?

I can define the width of a way, its color, whether it is dashed or solid in my TYP file. Are you saying I don't need a TYP file to make a dashed, brown line of width 5 pixels with hex code 0x1007 that is then assigned via a style rule to an OSM way?
If I do not then I agree; I don't understand anything about TYP files.
Can you explain in a little more detail what you are trying to tell me?

Greg here, Yes, I am using a TYP file. I have used up add TYP from 0x00-0x2f and was trying to start using EXTENDED TYP numbers (0x10000-) When I used 0x10000-0x10005) those lines were onlt 1 pixel wide in BaseCamp. Visible yes, but not the way there were defined by my TYP file. Dave sent me his EXTENDED TYP file and I am going to compare the TEXT OUTPUT to my TEXT OUTPUT. Maybe my TYP editor is not producing the correct TEXT format? Greg On Sat, Feb 27, 2016 at 9:17 AM, Minko <ligfietser@online.nl> wrote:

When lines etc in a TYP file are not rendered correctly in Basecamp/Mapsource then if some lines in the TYP file are shown correctly but others not, part of the TYP file is corrupt. If none of them are shown correctly, the FID and PID do not match those used by the IMGs /gemapsupp. This happens when you try to replace a TYP file without checking and matching the FIDs etc. -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Anyone-determine-which-linetypes-are-NOT-visa...
