2.3.2 Position markers
2.3.2.1 Vehimarker and Lock-on-Road
When your GPS position is available, the software marks your current position with the Vehimarker.
By default, this marker is a blue arrow, but you can change this icon in Settings.
The exact location of the Vehimarker depends on the vehicle type used for route calculation. The
vehicle type can be selected in Route settings.
•
If you choose pedestrian: The Vehimarker is at your exact GPS position. The direction of the
icon shows your current heading.
•
If you choose any of the vehicles: The Vehimarker may not show your exact GPS position and
heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road to suppress GPS position errors,
and the direction of the icon is aligned to the direction of the road.
2.3.2.2 Selected map location (Cursor)
You can mark a map location in the following ways:
•
Tap the map when navigating,
•
Tap the map when you are asked to confirm the destination at the end of a search, or
•
Tap the map in Find on Map (page
47
)
When a map location is selected, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the map. The Cursor is
displayed with a radiating red dot (
) to make it visible at all zoom levels.
The location of the Cursor can be used as the destination of the route, you can search for Places
around it, or you can save this location as one of your Favourite destinations.
