Hello,
while searching for information how housenumbers are handled on Garmin devices
I found a old thread.
Postal_codes:
When I use the display-tool I see that the zip-codes (mdr 6) are not sorted:
--------- MDR 6 (ZIPs) ---------------------------------------------------------
| | | Zip size: 2
| | | zip index 1
00f99def | 000000 | 40 | 64 map number
00f99df0 | 000001 | 2a 00 | the 42 zip in the map
00f99df2 | 000003 | 40 08 00 | offset in LBL 0x000840
| | | zip index 2
00f99df5 | 000006 | 40 | 64 map number
00f99df6 | 000007 | 35 00 | the 53 zip in the map
00f99df8 | 000009 | 40 2b 00 | offset in LBL 0x002b40
| | | zip index 3
...
I don't think/hope that sorting the postal_codes will fix the problem...
I'ver read somewhere, that only in NT-Maps postal_codes are searchable... Maybe
we just have to set some bits in the header...
