pin, or save it as a POI. The cursor, when visible, is also the reference point for map

scaling.

Note: When your GPS position is available, and Lock-to-Position (Page

) is active,

the cursor is the current GPS position, the blue arrow. When you select another point

by tapping the map, or using the Find menu (Page 74), the new Cursor is shown on

the display with the red dot and the radiating red circles.

4.4.8 Marked map points (Pin)

The Cursor can be marked with a Pin. Pins are shown as being stuck in the map. A

Pin is visible at all zoom levels and remains in its position until you unpin it, or delete

all Pins in Advanced settings (Page

).

The colour of the Pin is automatically selected by iGO. Different colours help you

identify a Pin in the History list (Page

) later. There they are shown together with

their address and GPS Coordinates.

Tip: There is a quick way to save the current GPS position as a Pin. Press the

Record button (hardware button with an audio cassette icon on it) to save the Pin

instantly (Page ).

Tip: A quick way to tell the coordinates of a location you found on the map is to Pin it,

and then look for the coordinates in the History list (Page ).This way you also save

the coordinates with the Pin for later reference. If you do not need the coordinates

later, just select the point and start Find Coordinates (Page

4.4.9 Visible POIs (Points of Interest)

iGO comes with thousands of built-in POIs, and you can create your own POI

database as well. Having all of them displayed on the map would make the map too

crowded. To avoid this, iGO lets you select which POIs to show and which ones to

hide (Page

) using their categories and subcategories.
