Ok so i've loaded lots of poi into the map folder, but when I go into manage poi / Enable - disable poi alot of them are not in the list to be enabled or disabled is there a way to make them show up so then i can enable the ones i want?

I've cheaked useing the file explorer and they are in the map folder.

There is a limit of 39 custom POI's within the TTN5 software, if you exceed this number they simply don't appear for selection.
You need to be more selective about the POI's you need for example don't use different fuel companys for petrol stations when one single file can encompass the lot Wink there are loads of other examples such as this. Mike

Thanks mike for the speedy reply.

I think i know what you mean by the number that can be displayed.

in manage poi / enable- disable poi / this then takes you to "Mark the POI to display: where you have to tick the box at the side. In this section i have 81 catagories but not all are show that are in the map folder.

thanks

Use windows File Exlorer to view the map folder and simply count the number of .ov2 files you have loaded, this must be kept below 39 for TT version 5 - you can go to 100 if you use TT version 6 - Mike
