Elements of the active route

Current GPS position
Your current position displayed on the map.
If any vehicle type is selected for route calculation and
roads are near, the symbol is put on the nearest road.
Cursor (selected map location)
The location selected in the Destination menu, or a map
point selected by tapping the map.
Start point
The first point of the route. Normally if GPS position is
available, it is the start point of the route. If there is no valid
GPS position, Alpine Navigation Software uses the last
known GPS position as the start point.
When you are using a saved route, Alpine Navigation
Software asks you if you want to use your GPS position or
the first point in the saved route as the start point.
You can also modify the start point in the Cursor menu.
If you do so, automatic off-route recalculation needs to be
turned off to keep the selected point as the start point.
If automatic off-route recalculation is disabled for any
of the above, tapping the
icon in the Turn Preview
field not only initiates route recalculation from the current
GPS position, but it will re-enable the automatic off-route
recalculation as well.
Waypoint
A waypoint is an intermediate destination.
You can place as many waypoints as you want.
Destination (end point)
The last point of the route, the final destination.
Route colour
The route always stands out with its colour on the map,
both in daytime and in night colour mode. The active leg
of the route is always displayed in a brighter shade than
the inactive (upcoming) legs.
Active leg of the route
The section of the route on which you are driving.
If you have not added any waypoints (only a destination),
the entire route is the active leg. If you have added
waypoints, the active leg is the part of the route from your
current location to the next route point (the next waypoint,
or the destination if there are no more waypoints to reach).

Inactive legs of the route
The future sections of the route; each of them becomes
active when you reach the waypoint at its beginning.
Streets and roads that are excluded from the navigation
You can choose whether you want to use or avoid certain
road types. However, when Alpine
Navigation Software cannot avoid such roads, the route
will include them and it will show them in a colour that is
different from the route colour.

Cursor menu

As soon as you select one point in the Destination menu,
the map appears with the Cursor menu, a menu with possible
actions for the selected point. Alternatively when you tap
the map, control buttons appear.
Tap again to place the Cursor
(
).
Now tap [Select], and the Cursor menu opens with a list
of options.
You can perform the following actions:
Closes the Cursor menu, and returns to the previous screen.
Displayed at the Cursor if it has been relocated since the
Cursor menu was opened.
Zooms out the map.
Zooms in the map.
With the Cursor menu open, you can still move or scale
the map, and tap the map anywhere to place the Cursor
to a new location, but when you use this button, the Cursor
jumps back to the place where it was at the time when you
opened the Cursor menu.
