Wayfinder Map Routing off GPS
 
Hello,

Within Map there is obviously a way to work out a route from where you are, to where you want to go.

But what if you want to work out a route from where you will be tomorrow to somewhere else?

The routing options only appear to be able to set a destination, not a source?

You could knock something up to report arbitrary data through gpsd, but there's no way of getting Navicore to do any routing from an arbitrary location AFAICT.

Turn off your receiver, then you can manually set the start point for your route. Works great.

Step by step instructions:
1. Start your Wayfinder.
2. Select the GPS satellite view
3. Untick the 'Connect to GPS' and close the view
4. You can now either Find route or Edit route and first thing it tells you is to set the route origin
