Hi everyone, new user here. I opened a .usr file containing waypoints in RM, and then I saved it as a csv to work with it in Excel. Two fields are missing in the csv, the symbol and the display-flag field that tells Lowrance to show icon+name or icon only on the screen. When doing the same operation with GPSBabel, the symbol field does appear in the csv, but still no display-flag field. I hoped RM would translate all relevant fields in the usr schema. V4 or V6 .usr yielded the same result. Am I missing something?

sounds like these cells are stripped for a reason. I'm sure the boss will be along.

Assuming you are talking about the Waypoint Manager here then this is something we can probably add - it sounds like an oversight, although since the symbol and display mode are manufacturer specific it probably wasn't felt necessary to include them in the CSV format exports.

Yes Matt. I am talking about Waypoint manager. It would be most helpful if those fields can be added to the csv format. No product has that capability. Babel does symbols, but not the display mode.
