Catorgorizing Custom POI's Is there a Limit on how mant you can have?

 

Hi, On the c530 is there a limit on how many POI catagories you can have? The reason I ask is that I have 31 now and it seems that sometimes the last one does not show up on the list but if I spelled it out it showed up. So I know they are there but if I continue to add more catagories will they show up on the list? Thanks!

.

You can't have more than 32 files in a single folder. So you will need to create another folder and split them up.

I thought so but...

Hi, I thought the same thing and now I have (36) .csv files in one folder and all loaded ok and on the unit they are all there and seem fine.. Just a note, I am putting them on a SD card (c-530), I wonder if that matters. Thanks!

I think you can have as many

I think you can have as many as you want in the top level folder, however you can only have a max of 32 in each sub folder.

Software Bug

I think this is a bug in the Garmin software. If you turn on the GPS and just scroll down the custom POI's the last one is there. However, if you "go" to another one and then scroll down the list the last one isn't there. In all cases "spell" will pick it up.
