Good Morning, the problem I had with my last map was when one was standing next to the pacific ocean if one zoomed out several times the ocean would disappear. I was making my map base today with the dictionary and I can not see the water until level 0 any way I can make it visible at the last level?
Thanks-Marc

Hmm, The ocean and main inland water bodies where added to the borders as part of my base.
So I have:[POLYGON]

Not sure which approach you are taking; if you are not using the dictionary header method as mentioned, then you need a 'Levels=  ' statement for each feature - otherwise the 'Data0=' is saying to display the feature at the bit-level defined by 'level0=  ' and more detailed zoomed levels.

Ok, I see 2 possibles, but it appears possibly editing the dictionary is best. If this is the current dictionary:

Thanks!

Thanks, I must be thick. Changing the dictionary did nothing but adding EndLevel=3 to each water body does work.
