@Ron-Z, Hmm, I suppose a search on address actually delivers an address to the routing engine, while using a favorite it actually delivers a coordinate to the routing engine. That might explain the difference. In your specific situation, due to the road layout, you reach that coordinate closer from the Mayler Ave.
Try this:
- place a waypoint ON the road closest to your front door
- click that waypoint and copy the coordinate from the waypoint menu
- delete that waypoint
- paste the coordinate into the search field and enter
- add the newly created waypoint to your favorites.
Now, can you navigate properly to the new favorite?
