Position Markers
Vehimarker and Lock-on-Road
When your GPS position is available, iGO primo marks your current position with
the Vehimarker. By default, this marker is a red arrow, but you can change this icon
in Settings.
The exact location of the Vehimarker depends on the vehicle type used for route
calculation. The vehicle type can be selected in Route settings.
• If you choose pedestrian: The Vehimarker is at your exact GPS position. The
direction of the icon shows your current heading.
• If you choose any of the vehicles: The Vehimarker may not show your exact
GPS position and heading. If roads are near, it is aligned to the nearest road
to suppress GPS position errors, and the direction of the icon is aligned to the
direction of the road.
Selected Map Location (Cursor) and Selected Map Object
You can mark a map location in the following ways:
• Tap the map when navigating,
• Tap the map when you are asked to confirm the destination at the end of a
search, or
• Tap the map in Find on Map.
When a map location is selected, the Cursor appears at the selected point on the
map.
The Cursor is displayed with a radiating red dot (
) to make it visible at all
zoom levels.
The location of the Cursor can be used as the destination of the route, a new alert
point, you can search for Places around it, or you can save this location as one of
your Favorite destinations.
You can also select some of the objects on the map. If you tap the map at the icon
of a Place of Interest or an alert point, the object will be selected (you see a red
circling border around the object), and you can get information about this object
or use it as a route point.
