There is no way to change/add/modify/delete waypoints symbols used in viking.

    I'm not sure what you are requesting.

    Viking 0.9.9 has abilities to delete waypoints.
    On each waypoint, you can select an icon or an external picture.
    But you cannot change the icons set.

    This seems to have closed automagically, but is this currently a possibility or difficult todo?
    If we just change it in the vik file manually will it look for a corresponding file somewhere or is it hardcoded.

    In Viking you only can select icon symbols from a specific set of symbols. (Hardcoded in the file garminsymbols.c - these are the ones available on most Garmin devices).

    Most 'modern' Garmin units support user defined/created symbols in addition to the basic symbol set.

    I'll leave this request closed as it's covered by a later (still open) request #97:
