[nuvi] 'where to' from map view

[MaFt]

is there a quick way, that i've failed to see, for clicking on a part of a map and saying 'take me here'?

the 2 roundabout ways i've found are below but thought it'd be an easier way to just say "take me where i'm pointing"

1) find where you want, click it and get the road name/number. leave map mode and go to 'where to' and input address

2) click where i want to go then click 'save' to save as favourite. leave map mode then go to 'where to' and favourites.

Hi,

Received my Nuvi 350 last week. Quite impressed so far. Would like more of the old "Que" features though, such as multiple via points and saving of routes, plus integration of routes from Mapsource.

Anyway, MaFt, quickest way I've found to go to somewhere on the map is:

From "main" where to/view map screen, click "where to", click down arrow twice, then click browse map. Zoom in/out, scroll around as necessary. Touch the map and arrow cursor shows where you have touched. Click Go! Nuvi will then calculate route and drive you from the current location.

If you would like to start a route, from a point other than where Nuvi think you are, then click "Set Loc" instead of Go. This sets your starting location. Return to main screen and then click "where to" again. Now choose where to go using search options or browse map again.

Have also discovered that if the antenna is closed (gps is off) then when you have entered a route, Nuvi will ask if you would like it simulated. Thought that feature had also been lost, but it is definately there!

Regards

Tosty.
