The 1st one i'm not sure if its a bug or feature ;)

You have to reload the POI file each time you change zoom level on the map. Also when you have selected the POI you want, the data doesnt load until you press /\ twice


The 2nd one is with the file I have attached. The 2nd description field, in this case 'GATSO:xxx' or 'MOBILE:xxx' seems to align to the right, cutting off half the word. Is it a mistake with my POI file?

I have attached the file and a demo map and icon for you to see what I mean. Unzip it into your maps folder

The POI file name is too long, so it messes up the rest of the display string...
should be 14-15 chars max...

I may need to tweak some POI logic too...

I used the mypoi to make POI's, but it does not give you the phone numbers too, like DENISKAS NY map, how did ya get them in there?
manually?
I really like MYPOI because it gives you all the info there , but no numbers.
any ideas?

another question...

MYPOI makes the pois look like this

-76.8832 , 34.7619 , "Trade Mart; (252) 223-2103; 6999 Highway 70 E; R(NaN/-2147483648)"

deniskas were like this..

40.615659, -74.031275,Cathy's,718-567-3953,


why are the numbers backwards?
