Tutorial: Find Points of Interest on a Route
Use GPS Radar to find the closest point of interest to your current location as you travel
along a route.
In this tutorial, you are creating a route on the toolbar and using
NavMode
to navigate with
the route. You want GPS Radar to find gas stations along your route as you travel.
Step 1—Get ready
Use the program to
create a route
using your current GPS location as the route start point
and an address book entry as your finish.
Step 2—Set your preferences
Set your GPS Radar preferences
on the Find tab in the Options dialog box
.
•
Select Road to calculate the distance you will have to travel by road to reach the
result.
•
Select the Repeat search every... check box (required for NavMode) and select
how often you want to repeat the search.
•
Select the Only in Direction of Travel check box so you don't have to back track to
make your next stop—if you're driving in a very rural area, you may not want to use
this feature because the closest point of interest may be behind you.
•
Select the Enable voice reporting check box and then select what you want
reported from the Report drop-down list.
