How would I know? - SHPEdit is someone else's code, after all. As is the magic bit of indecipherable Delphi that someone sent me to decode SHP files way over a decade ago. Nor have I read the SHP file format specification since 2005 or thereabouts.

But - it probably stuffs the compression routine up no end by giving it an unexpected amount of data (each icon is individually compressed, not the SHP file as an entirety - that is about the only thing I half remember form 10-15 years ago).

Utter guess of course - I am not going to spend hours and hours reading code (especially obscure code I never wrote) to try to figure out whatever it does to answer some casual forum query, especially since there's a fix for the 'problem' that is already known..
