Hi Charlie,

If you use a TYP file, then you require either a polygon definition or
a placeholder for every type of polygon that you want in the map.
That's because those definitions specify the drawing level of the
polygon. If you leave out the definition/placeholder for a given type
of polygon, it will become invisible.

Cheers,

Mark
