You can use POIEdit PoiEdit - Main to convert TomTom Binary.OV2 files to Google Earth .kml

what's about BMP file for IGO ?

[mytheuzen]

Convert your BMP to PNG and deposit it in "content\ userdata\ usericon \", delete file "kmlpoi.icon" in "data.zip\ ui_igo9\icons\ poi\", it remains only to redo the assignment of icons kml POIs and everything works fine.

a good Convert is the polish Convert-Tool, make a compatible KML für iGO/Primo. procedure a KML as one Row. you edit then with Textpad. The Programm have a good Function [search and replace]
---------

delete "kmlpoi.icon" in data.zip

newer a Function in Primo, not delete this!

you edtit a Primo.KML with Link to BMP:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.2">
<Document><name>Primary Folder-Name</name>
<metadata><igoicon><filename>Primary Folder-Name.bmp</filename></igoicon></metadata>
<Folder><name>Secondary Folder-Name</name>
<metadata><igoicon><filename>Secondary Folder-Name.bmp</filename></igoicon></metadata>
<Placemark-</PlaCemark>
..............
</Folder>
</Document>
</kml>
------------------------------------------
KML move to \Content\Userdata\Poi
BMP move/insert to \Content\Userdata\Usericon

i work only with BMP, convert or crate standard with PS v.6

have you activate the POI, can you see POI-list with Icon in the Map Setup? then is BMP ok.

the nex Problem is the file poi_visiblities.txt in \Save\Profiles\nn delete this and rerstart Primo/iGO
the Program writes at the beginning of the list. BMP is incompatible or not there, automatically KML.ICON is written. Software changes that are often no longer whether or KML BMP properly

sorry, google-english ;-)
