IMPORTANT : WHAT IF YOU MISS A TURN IN DIRECTROUTE ?
DirectRoute does not necessarily keep the position indicator icon on the road like
some full navigation programs do. It also does not automatically re-route you, if you
miss a turn. Sometimes the icon may be slightly away from the highlighted route, but
moving in the right direction. If you are using Map View and you miss a turn, you will
probably notice that you are dramatically moving away from the highlighted route. If
you are in the Route List, it may not be apparent that you have missed a turn. Map
View is recommended, especially when navigating complex routes.
Re-Routing, Selecting a New GOTO, and Canceling Active Routes
You can easily re-route, set a new street route destination, or
cancel an active street route by pressing the GOTO key
with an active route. If you press the GOTO key when a
street route is active, you will see the following screen:
Re-routing is very easy to do -
• Press GOTO to display the Street Route dialog box
• Press GOTO again, or select Re-route from the menu
• DirectRoute will recalculate the route to the current destination from your
current position.
• Stop Routing – Cancels the active route
• Continue – Returns you to the active route
• New GOTO – If you move the cursor away from the current position to
a new destination, while a street route is active, you can press GOTO,
select New GOTO from the above screen, and DirectRoute will calculate
a new route from your current position to the new destination.
