    After playing around with TopoDrive Hellas I must say I am really impressed!
    I think I like it even better than Anavasi TopoNavigator.

    I found a problem with the typ file however, the creators of this map kept the typ very basic and made a mistake with the Draworder of some polygons.
    Polygon 0x10f07 defines National Parks but it has Draworder 9, the highest of all. The result is that entire national parks are covering other important polygons like lakes, forests and Rocky areas.

    Example: Lake Prespa at the border of Albania and FYROM is totally hidden by the National Park.

    I corrected the typ by changing some draworders (see result above).
    Just replace the typ file with GMapTool or JaVaWa TYPchanger.

    Many thanks Mapperoni for your useful TYP.
    But the Topo Drive Hellas version 2013.A map has another big problem.
    There is no elevation information on GPS display and BaseCamp too.
    Have you any idea how to correct this problem ?

    How does one change the draw order for polygons (etc) in a TYP file?

    In addition to Caty's answer: Polygons are the only objects (out of 3) with a draworder.
    It would be nice to have the possibility to assign a draworder to polylines as well, in most custom maps (Openstreetmaps too) draworder errors can be seen when roads or waterways are crossing each other.
