# Viewing GENIO roads in the map

In the map, a GENIO road is shown shaded in gray with the alignment shown as a red line.

If the road is not shown in the map, tap to open the Layer manager and select the Map files tab. Select the GENIO file to see the list of available alignments in the file. To make the alignment visible in the map, tap the name of the alignment you want to define the road and then tap it again to make it selectable in the map. Tap Accept to return to the map.

In the map, tap the alignment to select the road. The road is highlighted in yellow with the alignment shown as a blue line. When you select a road, the Review, Edit, and Stakeout softkeys appear, enabling you to review or edit the road definition, or to stake out the road.

If the road is shown as a color gradient and you would prefer to view it in yellow, in the map toolbar tap / Settings and clear the Display color gradient check box in the Surface group box.

For a GENIO road that is not yet completely defined, only the alignment is shown in the map. When you tap the string to select it, the Define and Stakeout softkeys are available. Tap Define to add the strings to the road and complete the road definition. Tap Stakeout to stake the alignment.

To show or hide roads or other linked files in the map, tap to open the Layer manager and select the Map files tab. Tap a file to make it visible or to hide it. This is useful for reviewing a road relative to related secondary roads, particularly at interchanges and intersections.
