Hello there Mike,
Mike I would like to know when you add all the cGPSmapper point and other updated type to GM. I would like to use some of them and there are not listed in the Edit feature type window.

Also if all possible ( while you are updating ) it really would help if you could display the "Hex Code" as well, this would make this a whole lot easier to select and define a type.

Thanks Mike.
PS: Do I need to post this in a different forum or is this Okay here?
:)

    There is another post at http://www.globalmapperforum.com/forums/technical-support/2176-mp-format-type-hex-codes.html#post4099 which includes a list of all the built-in types and the associated MP type code.

    For types that aren't built-in, simply go to the appropriate Styles tab of the Configuration dialog and add a new custom type, then add a MP_TYPE attribute to the default attribute list for that type with the hex code that you want to use for that type on export. You can also modify the default attribute list for built in types if you want to override the default MP_TYPE mapping for that type with your own.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Thanks I have seen that, however you have types in there like Address label with no "hex Code" Also undefined or not specified also have no "hex code". What do i have to do there ?

    For those types if you want to assign a hex code, just select the type on the * Styles tab of the Configuration dialog, press the Attributes button, then add a MP_TYPE attribute with the hex code that you want to use for that type.

    Okay thanks Mike, that will work.
    Got one more issue. When I complie the xxx.mp file cGpsmapper complains that I am missing the ProductCode=xxxx and the FID=xxxx.

    In The how can I add the ProductCode=xxx FID=xxxx from within GM?

    To get stuff like that in your header you need to manually create a MP file header with the options that you want, then use that as a template file during your MP export in Global Mapper.
