    No bad feelings, no problem sherco, as I wrote above it was ..."late at night"

    In the TYP in post #14 I do have the entries for the nonNT water objects in the Draw Order List.
    That's why I can see the Lakes with that TYP all the way to 3000km zoom level.
    I don't understand why you can't see them with the same TYP...

    Do you see the difference in River and Road detail between Mapsource and Basecamp with the same map, same TYP, same zoom and detail level.
    Maybe because of different Basemaps?

    For Basemaps you are right, but I cannot find Mapsource's Basemap (....ancient installation), I don't have any Global Map in my list (as I have in Basecamp).
    Because I always use maps with Highest Detail, I never bothered to look for a basic map, thank you very much!!!

    Here I was ...teasing you!!! Because for this topic it was the only and most important polygon (teasing again), but anyway I knew it from some years ago when I wanted to improve the looks of very wrong looking greek topomap in Mapsource!
    I don't believe that there is even one person working with TYPs, that is not grateful to you for your program!!!

    Finally we came to the same conclusion, you through science, me through testing, that for Mapsource/Basecamp we need NT and nonNT polygons/Draw Order, but devices read only NT objects (with NT maps) and discard nonNT.

    Finally I have a small problem in New York and Long Island, where only with the original Garmin TYP I get a correct view both in Mapsource, Basecamp and device.
    Maybe it's Garmin's fault, maybe not, we' ll discuss it later on.


    For the problem I have with TypViewer and install TYP command I'll post later tonight.

    For your problem of Long Island (and in some other places) you should change some draworder: the main thing is to put 0x10b02 after 0x10802 (i.e the sea must be displayed over the urban area) .Here is a modified typfile (I have also change the draworder of parks)

    I have not verified if all is really OK but it seems to be correct.
