map view strangeness on nuvi 660
18 years
|
Everyone,
I am a new person and know very little and hope to learn and participate as often.
I have been noticing on more than one occasion with my Nuvi660 that I would just be looking at view map and while proceeding east on specific street (ie;slater avenue) the GPS would sometime say heading east on Slater Avenue and then other time it would say Slater Avenue Ahead, it will always change when it notices a upcoming street and then say the street name ahead.
Why does not say always proceeding East on Slater Avenue, unless I change directions?
2)Usually most of the time it will display the street I am traveling on, then at certain times, it will show me like I am not moving but would display the various streets as I pass them by, but looking as though I am standing still.
Thank You
Dan
upcoming street / 2D 3D
Welcome to the site Dan.
I think it's normal for the GPS to show the names of upcoming streets as you approach them (rather than just show the name of the street you're on).
Are you looking for a setting that will have the GPS always show your direction of travel and the name of the street you're currently following?
As far as your description for issue #2, I think you may be seeing the difference between 2D and 3D map view.
