Hi,

Topo Austria unlocked with Gimgunlocker gave me a map with active routing (search trail) working both in Basecamp and on my Montana.
Trails or paths are displayed in red in Basecamp when “hiking” is selected, but they aren’t on my Montana still when “hiking” is selected.
It’s strange because the thing only occurs with this map. With Topo Transalpine or Topo Deutchland Pro 2012, trails and paths are displayed in red both in Basecamp or on my Montana when “hiking” is selected.
Did anybody notice the same problem ? From where could this problem come from ?

Do you have mapsourse version pls?

Hi,

I have the same problem as sergio2 in #37. Unlocked with GarminUnlockerAlternative v7.1.2.
Search Trail works on both Basecamp and on the Montana.

Trails are displayed in red/magenta in basecamp when hiking/mountainbiking is selected on Basecamp
they are NOT displayed in color when hiking/mountainbiking is selected on the montana.

This works perfectly fine with Topo Transalpine 2012 pro, though.

But I found an additional strange thing that maybe could help to find the problem?
When putting austria AND transalpine (and both SQL files) on the same card and then activating BOTH maps, then the color coded paths are actually SHOWN for topo austria material! Unfortunately, this really only works when both are activated at the same time. If transalpine is deactivated, austria paths are NOT color coded anymore.

Does anyone have a solution or idea to get this working?

Hi,

I did the same as you : putting austria AND transalpine (and both SQL files) on the same card and then activating BOTH maps.
But I think you are wrong. The red color paths which are displayed are those from Topo Transalpine and not those from Topo Austria (main part of Austria is included in Topo Transalpine).
But I should have a look again to check if part of Austria not included in Transalpine can display red paths when both are activated.

No, unfortunately you are wrong in that assumption.
See my attached picture: It shows the same part of the map in Trans+Austria, Austria only, Trans only both for Mountainbiking and Hiking.

You can clearly see that in Transalpine alone there are other paths marked than in Transalpine+Austria. And checking against Basecamp markings, it is clear that the austria paths ARE indeed marked TOGETHER with the transalpine marks when both are active. Transalpine alone also shows marked paths, but only the transalpine ones Austria alone shows no marked paths at all.

This is a _really_ strange problem, and you seem to have exactly the same.

Possible source of the problem may be that there is a draw priority conflict between the 2 maps (both have original draw priority 30). I don't know, how a Garmin handles 2 maps of the same type and draw priority...?
It's worth a try to modify the draw priority of one map (with gmaptool)
