Yes, indeed !

That's so very coool

BTW two questions:

1) IIRC the low zoom map is controlled by one file and the high zoom one by others, so is it possible to have different colors in both cases?

2) Any chance of a true KM chart color scheme, as flat green for land and white for water? I mean in low zoom settings, as the Aces of the Deep chart - the idea would be to switch to the other color scheme in high zoom, so that you can differentiate the water depth zones. So you have a "tactical" chart with KM grid in low zoom, and "navigation" chart in high zoom.

I don't think it's possible, because both maps' colors are controled by the same color sheme file.

Yes, it's possible ! I could give a single green color to the land, and different shades of gray for the water depths .... Will try this.

Like that ?

[Hitman]

Water is perfect, but land should be flat green

[Hitman]

Yay

Though a bit more green would not hurt ---

i use a brown map, i donloaded and i had superpose in low resolution map a coordenate grid, so you can aproximate lat and long. Realy i dont remember how i fix position, but i made it right when i did. posible i extracted and make transparecy wirh a mercator chart. to set correct position.

if you are interested i can upload it.
