I created a single KML with 2 categories from the two OV2 files (HGV,LCV), inserted the data record number as a description and prepared it for inserting a telephone number

Spoiler: Placemark

the 3 bitmaps are 48x48px, 3 of the same with 64x64px attached, rename accordingly when used.

@rondoan thx for help and file provided
Finally i figure out wich was the culprit
And the culprit was :history.sav Once i comment history problem was solved I tried in manny ways with sys with.ini but in the end history.sav was

I didn't think for a moment at history.sav and how much trouble can do
One of the test was to delete save folder then when i finish basic settings without any history.sav ,appears on map both dkv and keyfuels
Im verry happy and grateful for all yours help
I will test tommorow your keyfuels.kml
Gratitude.Cristian

Question?

What is the advantage of the *.svg icons in the "ui_nextgen" over the *.bmp icons in "userdata\usericon"?

**Boki** · 4th February 2022, 10:14 AM

It is a general advantage one format over another.

BMP, jpg, png and similar files have fixed resolution (the image was obtained on the basis of points). With magnification, the quality of the display is reduced.
SVG is a vector format (Scalable Vector Graphics). When magnified, the display quality remains the same.

You could have googled this

**stefando** · 4th February 2022, 10:56 AM

One of best advantage-very easily adjusting size of icons in Nextgen:

Spoiler: To be added in sys.txt

Spoiler: with 139x200 in sys.txt

Hello,

I will add to previous messages that one of the great advantages of using vector format in navigation software (but not only) is :
- Of course, the quality of the rendering on the screen.
- But above all the fact that only one image is used for all resolutions. Unlike the bmp,png format, where you need an image for each resolution. (saving space, saving weight).

**HansGans09** · 4th February 2022, 03:22 PM

OK put it wrong.
It wasn't about the format itself, I know the difference.
Is the considerably greater effort of integrating your own *.svg icons in iGO really worth it? Not everyone can cope with that.
The use of *.kml icons is much easier.

I am currently testing whether I have to adapt my kml files for this. The question is whether I then always have to create two versions.
