Thread: Extra_POI_Editor up to v5.97 (.gpi file creation discussion - like POI Loader and more)

@949BFN,

4-bit color depth? That is 16 colors. Try 8-bit color depth (256 colors). I have to check all the conversions when I have a bit more time, but I think I support 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit bitmaps. I know some GPS will only support some type of bitmap. My 3750 only supports 256 colors or the bitmap will not show. I need also to check what POI Loader does, but I think it does no conversions.

Right now, if you Export by Category or Symbols (or even filename), you can have one map symbol per category. Just make sure the bitmap is 256 colors (see point above) and that it has the same name as the category (or symbols or filename) and put it in the same folder as the source POI.
