Selected Map Point, Also Known As The Cursor; Marked Map Points (Pin) - Navfly N29050-V1 User Manual

The location received from the GPS receiver is shown as a blue dot on the map. This
can help you locate your position if the GPS accuracy is poor, and the Lock-on-Road
system puts you on the wrong street. It is also the location saved in the track log
(4.7.2.6).
Note: the Lock-on-Road feature can be turned off in Advanced settings (5.6.4.4) for
pedestrian use. When switched off, the arrow is displayed where the blue dot would
be with active Lock-on-Road.
When the GPS position is lost, the arrow turns grey and jumps to the last known
position, disabling Lock-on-Road (the last position before losing the reception is
usually inaccurate, and there is a chance that Lock-on-Road may choose the wrong
street).

4.4.7 Selected map point, also known as the Cursor

If you tap the map somewhere or select a specific item in Find, it will become the
selected point on the map, marked with a small red dot and permanently radiating
red circles to make it conspicuous at all zoom levels, even when it is in the
background of a 3D map view. You can use this point as starting point, via point, or
destination of your route, you can search for a POI near to it, mark it with a drawing-
pin, or save it as a POI. The cursor, when visible, is also the reference point for map
scaling.
Note: When your GPS position is available, and Lock-to-Position is active, the cursor
is always the current GPS position. When you select another point by tapping the
map, or using Find, the new Cursor is shown on the display, Lock-to-Position
becomes disabled, and the Lock button appears on the screen. Now the Cursor is
the newly selected point. As soon as you tap the Lock button, or after the given
timeout NAVFLY Navigator restores Lock-to-Position (5.6.3.3), and the Cursor jumps
back to the current GPS position.

4.4.8 Marked map points (Pin)

The Cursor can be marked with a pin. Pins are shown as being stuck in the map. A
pin is visible at all zoom levels and remains in its position until you unpin it, or delete
all pins in Advanced settings (5.6.5.3).
The Color of the pin is automatically selected by NAVFLY Navigator. Different Colors
help you identify a pin in the History list (6.3.2) later. There they are shown together
with their address and GPS coordinates.
Tip: A quick way to tell the coordinates of a location you found on the map is to pin it,
and then look for the coordinates in the History list (6.3.2). This way you also save
the coordinates with the pin for later reference. If you do not need the coordinates
later, just select the point and start Find Coordinates (6.3.3).
