I have downloaded some POI's from PGPSW but a couple of the icons I find difficult to see on the maps.

Is it possible to use the pre installed icon on the TomTom (for example petrol stations) with the PGPSW POI data?

The pre-installed Icons are hardwired into the software.

Which Icons are you finding a problem?

Richard,

I'm not too keen on the Petrol Stations icon, I prefer the TomTom version.

You could 'do' your own with Paint, or any other paint program. If you Open the original bmp you can change it to something you're more comfortable with.

It's only 484 pixels, so there's not many to change. Smile

I seem to remember I might have done exactly that already for the petrol stations
Is this any good to you?

My Petrol Stations icon (right click and "save as...")

You'll have to change the name to match whatever your POI file is called (possibly "Fuel"?)
