Current Location
Lets you search near your current location. This is the default value.
Destination
Lets you search near a specified destination. For example, you know
your general destination, but not very much about interesting locations
in the area. You can use Destinator to locate the tourist attractions
most appealing to yourself, family, or friends. Note that this button is
enabled only when a destination is entered.
Other Address
Lets you search near another address. For example, you have set a
destination, but on the way you want to stop at another location. You
can use this feature to search near that location for restaurants,
lodging, historical sites, or anything you want.
Search Radius
Enter the location distance to search for a designated place. For
example, if you enter 5 km, Destinator only searches within a five
kilometer radius.
When you select a large search radius, you risk the chance of finding
too many locations, which makes it harder to find the place that you are
searching for. It is best to start with a small search radius size, and then
make it larger if necessary.
Note: if you don’t specify a search radius, Destinator searches the whole map.
Show or Hide Symbol on
Map
Lets you customize your POI list by showing or hiding the POI category
symbols that you don’t want. When you hide a category a red mark
appears. This mark only means that the category symbol does not
appear on your map. The category locations are still available to you.
You can always show a hidden category symbol by selecting the
category and tapping the Show Symbol on Map button.
Actions
When you have selected a POI location, tap the Actions button to display the commands listed
below.
Set as Origin
Lets you designate the selected location as the route origin. You would use
this command when calculating a route from a point other than your current
location. Note: You are still receiving the GPS signal.
Show on Map
Lets you show the map with the displayed destination for you to review
before creating a route.
Add to My Favorites
Lets you add a POI entry to your list of favorite locations.
Sort By ABC or
Distance
Lets you sort the entries of the selected category alphabetically or by
distance from your current location.
Note: Destinator initially displays the entries by distance.
Information
Displays the telephone number and address information, and all other
information the system has regarding the selected POI entry.
