+Billk72 Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 Ok curious how do I switch my map view on my Gpsr from city navigator to my loaded topo maps. Quote
+Dave&Stacy Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 The only easy way I have found is to put City Navigator on one micro-SD card and TOPO on another and switch the cards. You can turn off various maps in the Map Setup page, but if you have very many loaded (like I do) it takes FOREVER to shut off the ones you don't want. I found it easier to just switch the cards. YMMV. -Dave&Stacy Quote

YMMV. -Dave&Stacy With the older Mapsource products, the Metro maps "trump" the topo maps. That is, the metro map would take precidence over all topo maps encompassed by the same area. Select the metro map to see the city information and simply deselect it to see the topo information. I can't speak for City Navigator as I haven't used it, but this technique is worth a try. Quote
+Red90 Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 Why can't people just answer the question?? page to the map page press menu Choose "setup map" Move over to the "i" icon press menu Choose to hide "City Navigator" Quote

We could have told him to read the manual or do a search. Quote
+kurchian Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 I have a new 60CSx and I haven't bought any memory cards or CDs. I have been reading the logs here to determine what the best course of action for me is. I will use the GPSr for both hiking and autorouting. What happens when you are in an area that is covered by both 2 different maps that you have loaded in? Do you see both. That would seem overloaded and confusing. Or is it as simple as the previoius posting? All you have to do is shut one map off. thanks in advance. Quote
+Billk72 Posted January 19, 2007 Author Posted January 19, 2007 No city navigator takes priority which is fine getting you to parking area after that you have to hide the navigator as was described above then the topo will take over. Quote
+pdxmarathonman Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 No city navigator takes priority which is fine getting you to parking area after that you have to hide the navigator as was described above then the topo will take over. Or you can build your own transparent topo maps for the areas that you need topo maps and keep 'em all turned on at the same time (see the thread in this forum). Quote
