H2O GPS Question

[mikey1685]

When saving a wave point on a lake, can u name it something like "crappie hole" in the directory list,but only have a x appear at the marked spot on the lake, instead of the hole name which makes it hard to see the lake depths ect after a few spots are saved.

i think u can download a program on ur pc from navionics then slip in your chip and name them that way. i havent done it yet but thats what i was told

[trunkmonkey]

i guess its called navplanner but i dont know where to get it?

Go to your waypoint list,choose a waypoint and edit. then you can name it anything you like.

If I understand the question correctly. Can you have the waypoint show up on the map but not the title? I must say it is frustrating to see the title on the map.

Iceseeker.

you are correct,i understand how to name the waypoint, but when you give it a name,the name also appears at the spot you made the waypoint on the lake, i would like 2 just have a x or dot or something at the spot marked,but also be able to name it more specific for the directory.

You can save a waypoint without a name. If you changed the symbol to say a green X for a crappie spot and a red X for a walleye spots. On Atv trails I save good spots with a treasure chest symbol and save them with out a name.

Yes.....go to "Menu" ....."Map Categories"....and deselect "Names"

The Waypoint list will still have the waypoint name in the list, too.

And, thanks for asking the question...I've always meant to figure that out

And, all this time I was renaming the waypoints to make them smaller on screen....duh
