Creating and deleting route plans - TT3

[kybo]

Hi,

Thanks for listening to an incompetent noob drone on!!

My mate is borrowing my HP2210 and TT3, wired GPS, for a trip to Spain. I thought I'd pre-plan the routes for him. I soon found out that it's easier to simply select the destination when it's hooked up (and let it guide you there) than to plan route using departure and destination points from the comfort of your armchair 8O
Unfortunately, I made many mistakes and am left with all these useless routes on my PDA. How do I delete all the unwanted places that are now stored in the recent location icon Everytime I turn on TT3 I am being told how to get to Dover!! And I am getting

Thanks for help

You could set up all the planned destinations as points of interest (POI) - your friend would then just have to pick the relevant POI from the list each time they set off.

Or you could investigate the Itinerary feature - set one up then tap and hold on the list and the popup menu has options like save and open. Not used it myself, but I assume you could prepare all the routes here.

The recent locations list is finite - as you add new ones to the top, the old ones drop off the bottom. Adding new ones is the only way I know to clear off unwanted old ones.

To clear the current navigation to Dover when you start TT, go to Map view select the Tools menu then Clear route... (or just start navigating to somewhere else!).

Barry,

Thanks a lot for your comments. Now I know the list removes redundant places as new ones fill it, I'm fine with that.

Adding them as POI's is a little beyond me yet I suspect, but nonetheless, useful to know, especially for when my experience and confidence grows.

Can't hurt to play around with it I suppose (it is Microsoft based, tho. Hmmmmm) :o

Gud 'ol Microsoft and restore!!!!!! Play away, eh!!

Cheers
