|

Hi All,
I have always seen the `Images` option on the browse map screen.
Does anyone know what it does, i always have it ticked but never see any thing happen?
Can i upload my own images of places or something?
Thanks

I can't find an "Images" option on my 910.
Where are you actually seeing it, and what is your Device? _________________ Richard

I think browse map as images will show little bitmaps of the turns you'll be making. Something like that, anyway .. |

I thought this was a feature on all TT's....
Browse map / Options.
"Images" is one of the 5 tick boxes (others are to show "Favourites", "POIs" etc)
If you have the correct files installed in the "raster" folder, when you zoom RIGHT out, the map display is replaced by satellite photos.
Nice gimmick, but not a lot of practical use. |

Use your finger to drag the map around and zoom in/out. |
