Oh, I set -series-name, -family-name and -area-name separately. This is how I know that the name that is visible in the GPS menu is the series name (not the area-name or family-name). Perhaps the problem is that I am not uploading the maps from Mapsource but instead just copying the gmapsupp.img file directly to the SD card (because this is many times quicker than uploading via the USB cable). For the record, series-name: This is the name displayed in the top-left drop down list in MapSource and that is visible in the GPS menu (but only the series name of the top layer) family-name: This is the name that appears in MapSource's Map Product Manager (CTRL+U) and is also ascribed to each tile if transferred using send-map area-name: This is the name that appears against each tile in the GPS unit if transferred manually by copying a gmapsupp.img to SD card Charlie _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
