    Default How to make map overlays

    Has anyone has success transparent making map overlays on marine charts?
    I want to overlay all the latest green zones on my pre G2 charts.
    I can create a map in GPSMapedit which shows the zones as shaded areas.
    I can bring them up in Mapsource, but can't make them appear as overlays.
    Anyone done something like it?
    Gotta be possible if you can do it with contour lines and tracks.

    After a bit more mucking around I have been able to upload an overlay onto my GPS.
    Just can't overlay it in Mapsource.

    One problem I am having is that I would like the overlay to be transparent so I can still see the depth contours and shaded areas underneath.
    Just want a cross hatch over the top really.
    Anyone know how to achieve that?
