   Overlay files used by <span class="productname">Geogrid</span>™-Viewer has to be in ASCII format. 
   Make sure you save the files correctly.
</p><p>
   Lines or polygons within the <span class="productname">Geogrid</span>™-Viewer (type 3 and 4) will be
   converted to tracks, except they are grouped. In this case GPSBabel creates routes.
</p><p>
   During the creation of an overlay file, a circle will be added to each 
   position of a waypoint or a route.
