Display of Custom POI on route

 

I've loaded some custom POI and corresponding bmp files onto my Nuvi 360. When I select a custom POI and choose 'Map' then the bmp picture is displayed. Only, when I drive to a location using 'Where to?' or when I use 'View Map' (in 2D) the custom POI along the way are not displayed. All my favorites / waypoints are nicely indicated, but not my custom POI.

Do I overlook a setting, should I do something different with my POI files or does it simply not work that way?

Thanks,

Marcel

How far are you zoomed in?

How far are you zoomed in? On my Zumo, the Custom POIs show up when I'm zoomed in to 0.3 miles or closer.

No luck in all zooms

I tested your suggestion with a Starbucks very close by where the car speed is low. Even if I zoom in as much as possible, the custom POI of Starbucks doesn't show up. In a perfect world the Starbucks picture should show up even when I drive along the highway and the store is along the highway. I can't zoom in while I'm driving.

The size of the pictures are 22X22. Do I have to make them larger?

Thanks,

Marcel

Same problem

I am having a similar problem. I loaded the POIs for rest areas. They are in the Custom POI folder on my Nuvi 350. However if I simulate a trip that I know goes past a rest area it doesnt show up on the route even if I zoom in to 300ft.
