The issue exists for me on my Edge 1030 even in classic mode, and with
the popularity layer turned off. I checked it twice to be sure. I am
going to revert to the previous firmware version so I can get my custom
symbology back.

That is very interesting and somewhat disturbing. There is one unknown
byte (at 0x65) in a typ file's header which might be worth investigating
. The header is higher than mkgmap's? 0x5B? with values ranging between
0 and 1F.(In TYPWiz6 you can change this in Settings,Advanced,Region)
Topo Austria has 0x0e and Topo Italia 0x0F
However,this may have nothing to do with the issue.

No they haven't changed the img format, what they did is that for
years they designed the maps in layout for desktop size displays, and
finally discovered maps should be much higher contrast on small
displays. So they introduced (already sind 2-3 years) a high contrast
layout that is more and more independent of the .typ-file layout.
Since the newest update this is even more?noticeable.
It can be deactivated by selecting classic map design or similar.
While high contrast or mountainbike or whatever will use the new layout.

I'm not sure if my message is relevant to this discussion list or not.
I own an Edge 1030 and I use mkgmap to make custom maps for it.
Recently
Garmin provided a firmware update for the 1030 (ver. 12.0). After I
installed it none of my custom POI symbols appear on the map. In
addition, the default Garmin POI symbols have been updated by Garmin.
All my custom line and polygon symbols still display.? I saw comments
from some users in the Garmin forums that TOPO maps will no longer
work
with the firmware update either.
It appears Garmin may have revised the format of their IMG files, if
only slightly.? I don't know if this affects all Garmin models or
only
certain ones.
