I do not have log data for the entire map I am creating and I want to change the default background color of the water that is not logged for my LCX unit to white.

I have imported a custom polygon into the map the represents the entire lake. I set the level to 90 which exceeds all other elements and things look good. But when I export to .at5 and view in the elite 5 emulator, thing also look good until I zoom below 400ft scale, then the color I have set for unlogged water turns to the defualt land color. Not sure what I am missing.

I did open the shp file in QGIS and have the following values

L_LIMIT 0
U_LIMIT 19
COLOR 15
RTP_COLOR NULL
RTP_LIMIT NULL
WIDTH NULL
FONT NULL
MODE N
VALUE 0
LAYER 90
MAJ_CAT Nautical
MIN_CAT Lake
TYPE NULL
ICON NULL
IMG_RENDER 255
VALUE2 0
BDR_COLOR 0
BDR_WIDTH 1

Not sure what I am missing..

Thanks for you help

The first thing I'd check is that you have only the categories of objects you are creating yourself activated in the emulator. You may want to change the mincat to something else as well, because "lake" is a default area name and you'll be activating it in the basemap as well. You need to deactivate the areas in the basemap and other maps that may be loading to have a proper idea of what is really going on. MinCat can be anything you choose.
