Does anybody know if you can move the cursor to the destination you want and then get a route? If so how? Also I don't seem to be able to move the cursor independently when I have a map showing the planned route but it seems to appear in various places - mind of its own? In short, I suppose how can I use the cursor and what does it actually do? There is nothing of any use in the manual.

You cannot move the cursor, but you can navigate so a point on the map. Just go to Navigate to, then Point on Map and you can move an X cursor to the point you would like go. You do have to move the map about to find the point you want to navigate to. The best is to use Address and house number, or Crossing or intersection city.

Hi,
Thanks for that. At least I know that I can't just move the cursor to where I want to go - by the way the way I am assuming the the cursor is the blue flashing button with the cross on it on the screen so I hope that is correct. I had tried to navigate to a Point on a Map and that is why I had the second problem, each time I try to move the cursor to where I want to go the map moves and I can't get it away from where I am starting from. I have tried as you suggest and that seems to work but I do go to a lot of destinations which are not easily defined by post code etc and I am having to use the Latitude/Longitude method which works but finding the latitude etc. is not easy.

The trick to using the blue x curser is to move the map to your general location without touching the curser, then touch the point of your destination and your curser will be there.

Great! That is the answer, thanks for the help.
