[mkgmap-dev] route displayed under the road

Tue Jul 14 12:36:52 BST 2009

Even without using a custom typ file, nuvis and garmin mobile xt's
default road is very thick covering the magenta line.  I am using an
etrex legend so no problem for me.  But many Philippine users have
nuvis and garmin mobile xt in ther phones.  Is there a way to choose
whether routing to above or belwo the road?

Thanks!
