Hi Minko

Thanks for the advice.  Now in the process of updating my style.   

Never to sure if I should start again with the default and modify it.  It is a 
pity that the standard style and typ sheets did not mirror the OSM web view but 
I believe that some Garmins do not take kindly to some typ files so can 
understand the default been a safe starting point. 

Also just about every location has particular needs so not much more can be 
done with default styles as often users' need conflict.  

Strange as it might appear in Europe but gravel roads that can be impassible by 
normal cars are classed as National Highways in Australia.   Still have not 
worked out the best way to render gravel roads but still keep their road level 
rating. Duplicating all the road lines for gravel will likely mean running out 
of Garmin hex codes for line type.  Also OSM surface rules are rather weird.  
Bit like the hiking classifications that are very word long, but at least they 
are a standard.  Tempted by the technic used by some for bridges to render 
gravel roads. 

O'well, thanks to all the developers and testers.  I get a few nice thankyous 
for the img that I produce but frankly this group does most of the work.

Thanks again. 

Cheers
