hello stephen,

could you please consider adding an option to select routing mode (pedestrian, bike, car) directly from a context menu of selected search result? having to set it in route settings beforehand is not very user-friendly in my opinion. or maybe i am missing a trick how to toggle between modes :-)

cheers,

jo

Hi Jo,

The quickest way to do this is to change the current Activity Profile via the shortcut menu (on a BlackBerry press [0] then [9] repeatedly to switch profile). Any changes made to the routing method (eg via Menu/Web/Download Route/Method) are stored within the current profile.

Does that make it any easier?

Cheers,
Stephen

hi stephen,

this works, but it still forces you to remember what profile/routing mode i am currently using. having a possibility to change it without a need to switch to other profile would be nice imo.

Mmm, it does tell you the current routing mode within the Context Menu (eg 'Nagivate to... (CM:Driving/Quickest)' etc), but I'll look into maybe adding a menu item below this to select the mode...

Cheers,
Stephen
