Diff maps have diff "find favourites" UI

george57l

Hi
I have GB plus and France plus maps. In France plus when I 'manage favourites' I get a list of 6 to a screen and an option to 'find' which brings up the keyboard and reduces the list to 2 items. Perfect. I'm sure my GB map used to do this -but now whenever I open 'manage favourites' in GB plus, I get the keyboard and a list of 2 favourites. I know this can be changed but I am tearing my hair out finding the option to do it. Probably a "user idiocy" problem but I'm running out of hair.
Any advice?
Thx
George

It defaults to the "two favourites plus keyboard" as soon as you have more than 12, I think.

I sincerely hope you are wrong - but I fear you are right - typical TT behaviour.
TT have absolutely no clue about usability.
Why can't they give the USER the CHOICE? But no - Nanny TT knows best and decides that scrolling more than 12 items was too hard for the poor dumb user, who could not manage without a search function. Perhaps they forgot that with less than 12 you can still click "find" and get the keyboard/search option - but it wasn't broke so they fixed it. Idiots!
Thanks for preventing me from tearing out any more hair, at least.
Cheers
George

Yup! I had 13 Favs. Deleted one and hey presto - no more keyboard.
Good grief!
Thanks
