Imposing a contant scale to an etrex vista HCx
« on: 17 April, 2010, 09:51:28 pm »
When I am in routing mode, the scale of the map keep changing which is very annoying as I never know how far is the next turn. Is there a way to tell the GPS stop zooming in and out,I want to choose the scale?

Go to the Map Setup page, turn off auto zoom.

Just shows you it takes all sorts. I like auto zoom mode which sort of homes into the next turn/waypoint as you approach it.

Edit: Though it is a pain when the display zooms out beyond the level at which roads are displayed in GB_Topo. A touch of a button resolves that problem though.
