search near current route

 

I have a new Nuvi 680. When I do a seach for POIs using "search near current route" using Garmins built in POI data base, the found items always fall right along the route as they should, but when I do the same using a custom POI (*.csv) file, the found items seem to have to relation to the current route. Is there a way to modify the custom POI ??

Custom POIs

Yes, you can modify the coordinates in the custom POIs.

The "search along current

The "search along current route" does not work with customs POIs, only the built in ones. Any search for custom POIs will result in the 50 closest whether they are along your route or not. And, no, there is no way to modify the POI so it would show "along current route."
