4.7.2.4 Manage POI (Points of Interest)
Here you can set all the parameters of POIs that you have created and the visibility
of the built-in POIs that come with the map.
Manage built-in POI visibility
The maps in XROAD come with a huge number of POIs. Displaying all of them
would make the maps too crowded (to see how POI items are shown on the map
see Page 23). In order to avoid that, you can decide which POI groups to show and
which ones to hide on the map. XROAD has a multi-level POI category system. You
can set the visibility of the top two levels. All levels below that will be shown or
hidden according to their respective category (i.e. you can set the visibility of Petrol
Stations in the Services category, but all brands listed under that will either be shown
or suppressed together).
Groups shown with a tick mark are visible on the map; groups without a tick mark are
hidden, while the ones shown with a pale tick mark have some of their subcategories
shown and some others hidden.
If you highlight any of the POI groups, the button in the bottom left corner will
become Show if the POI group is hidden, or Hide if the group is shown or partly
shown.
Tip: To make a partly shown group fully shown, tap this button twice. First you will
hide the whole group, and then you will have it displayed with all its subgroups.
Tapping again the highlighted POI group (except for My POI – described later) opens
the list of subcategories of that group. Here you cannot see partly shown subgroups,
as visibility can only be set for the top two levels of categories. Showing and hiding a
subgroup is done the same way as for the main groups.
Manage My POI
By highlighting then tapping again the My POI switch on the Manage POI main
screen you can manage the POI groups and items that you have created.
