Warn when closer than: Grrrrr

[thekirbyfake]

I've recently moved from TTN5 to TTN6 and copied over my POIs.

Whenever I try to add something new to one of the POI categories it always asks "Warn when closer than...".

It's a client, not a speed camera so I don't need any more warning than "You have reached your destination".

Any ideas how you can turn this off.

I know you can go into Manage POIs and remove the warning for an entire category but when you add something new to that category the annoying "Warn when closer than..." message comes up.

Grrrr.

I've noticed that and thought it I was doing something wrong.
When adding a new POI to an existing category it first wants to turn on the warning when near. Even when that category doesn't already have the warning already turned on. Mildly annoying..
This is on TTNavigator6.030.8030

There are different ways to add a POI to an existing category. The User Guide takes you through Change Preferences, Manage POIs, Add POI, then a choice of specifying your POI which includes a point on the map. i.e. you decide first what you want to do, then select where you want to do it.

But the more usual way (for me anyway) to do it is to be already positioned at a point on the map and want to have it remembered as a POI. i.e. you already have the location and want to specify what to do. This is when the sequence for adding a warning takes over. It’s not logical and it’s annoying.

However, all you need to do is select “cancel” and the screen you get next again has “Add POI” as one of the options. This one allows you to add a “simple POI” without warnings. It does, though, only seem to offer the categories you’ve added yourself, not all the available standard categories.
