Re: Audio warning issue

[mention]Hati[/mention] , I have updated my post with your format of details. Note that I had no Proximity Alert menu option because I have no Proximity Alerts loaded. I verified this by adding some POIs and designating them as Proximity Alerts. I now have the menu item. https://live.staticflickr.co...

Re: Audio warning issue

It would seem to me that this may be some sort of proximity alert (but it doesn't seem to respond to the 'Proximity Alert' volume control) that is embedded in the map. So far it is being reported in the Australian and in the Canadian maps. Until we can find two or more people who have the same mapse...

Re: Zumo XT screen protectors

Thanks [mention]yorky[/mention] for those links. There's still nothing showing up on eBay here in the US. I tried the Lexerd antiglare sheets for the DriveSmart. They worked well in the sun to control glare but were otherwise unremarkable. I bought COOSKIN generic laptop antiglare sheets and cut my ...

Re: Zumo XT screen protectors

The first one I used was for a SmartDrive 55, which covered the screen area. It worked OK in bright sun and the glass screen was protected from my wet, muddy, grit-encrusted index finger, but I thought it would be better to cover the entire front of the unit. This is the SmartDrive protector in plac...

Re: zumo XT First (and continuing) impressions

"Skip Next Stop Confirmation" does the trick. I haven't figured the algorithm (on my quick test I couldn't really discern if it waited until you missed 'x' number of redirects or if you ignored 'y' number of reasonable attempts at redirection), but suffice it to say that very soon after yo...

Re: zumo XT First (and continuing) impressions

I have enabled "Skip Next Stop Confirmation" in Map and Vehicle. I'll see if that helps any with missed waypoints.

Re: zumo XT First (and continuing) impressions

Things are easing up here and I managed to get away for a ride of a couple of hundred miles. I continue to be impressed. I like the depth of the navigation guidance. This is not something I have used in the past but it does seem more worthwhile on the XT than it was on the 660. The instructions are ...

Re: Overlapping Routes

Have you tried double-clicking the route and, on the pop-up that shows the way and shaping points, seeing if the "Optimize" button is not greyed-out? If it is not, click it and see if that gets rid of the issue. Then you can do a Ctrl-Z to undo that and examine both routes to determine whe...
