4.2.6 Current position and Lock-on-Road
When your GPS position is available, a green arrow shows your location on the map.
The direction of the arrow represents your heading. The arrow is sized and vertically
rotated with the zoom and tilt levels to always look realistic.
Mio Map has a built-in Lock-on-Road feature that always puts the position arrow on
the road, on the axis of the street in case of one-way streets, or on the side of the
road where you drive (e.g. on the right in Germany and on the left in the U.K.) on
two-way roads.
You always see this corrected position on the map. The position given by the GPS is
not displayed, but this is the information recorded in the track log. When recorded
track logs are shown on the map, the line is not corrected. You see the positions
reported by the GPS.
Note: the Lock-on-Road feature can be turned off in Advanced settings (6.5.6) for
pedestrian use. When switched off, the arrow is displayed where the blue dot would
be with active Lock-on-Road.
When the GPS position is lost, the arrow turns grey and remains at the last known
position.
4.2.7 Selected map point, also known as the Cursor
If you tap the map somewhere or select a specific item in Find, it will become the
selected point on the map, marked with a small red dot and permanently radiating
red circles to make it conspicuous at all zoom levels, even when it is in the
background of a 3D map view. You can use this point as starting point, via point, or
destination of your route, you can search for a POI near to it, mark it with a drawing-
pin, or save it as a POI. The cursor, when visible, is also the reference point for map
scaling.
