Tap the screen to select a destination

[Nick Carthew]

I’m not sure if this was available in the previous version. From the Home Screen you can tap the screen to set a location for an A - B route and then choose to navigate the fastest route or select a scenic route.

When you tap the Destination option from the menu you are unable to select a destination by tapping the screen. Destinations are selected by the pre selected options of Favourites, routes, tracklogs etc or by typing into the search box.

I realise that adding an option to tap the screen for a location whilst in the Destination section is duplicating what is available from the Home Screen, but I thought that I would just highlight my find.

I think the menu item should be called Previous destinations.
Although you can also use it to select new destinations.
Strange!

@Nick-Carthew yes, I can confirm:

• in version 5.0.0. if you are at home screen, you can tap on the map, get a destination and can start navigation (which may fastest). Or just select "scenic" to select other navigation types.
  In version 4.4.1. if you are at home screen, ou can tap on the map, get a destination and get icons to pre select navigation types and/or start navigation.

• in version 5.0.0. if you are at home screen, and select "Destination" in menue, you can search for destination, but you can't tap on the map to set a destination
  In version 4.4.1. if you are at home screen, and select "Destination" in menue, you can search for destination, AND you can tap on the map to set a destination, and get icons to pre select navigation types and/or start navigation.
