[Gpsbabel-misc] Tracks with color in Garmin .TXT file

[Andres M. <am...@me...>]

Hi Olaf.
I'm not trying to argue with you but Garmin DOES store color information for
Tracks when saving in GPX format, BUT when converting from GPX with color
info to GDB for instance, GPSBabel does not pass out the color info, which I
think is what you are trying to say.
The question now is, is there a way to keep and pass on the color info for
Tracks when converting fron GPX that HAS that info ?

Thanks
Andres

the color value isn't part of MapSource text export. As long as Garmin
doesn't
change the format we'll not change the layout of garmin_txt.

Sorry, currently there is no way to get colors for tracks and routes into
GDB
or GPX with GPSBabel.

O.K.
