Where o' where are my breadcrumbs?

I have track route on but don't see the bread crumbs... Am I possibly missing something else???

It IS Friday you know... Just something I've been wondering about.

As far as I know, that only works on 'off road' areas. I discovered the functionality when my co-workers was futzing around witht he navi options and then i saw white dots appearing on the map while i drove out of the parking lot....once I got onto a road, it stopped appearing until i drove off road again.

I wonder how FAR off road you need to be, because no dots when I am in parking lots and like that are "off" the roads...

The office park I work in is relatively new and the roads are not yet digitized. Subsequently, I have bread crumbs appearing like gremlins, fed after midnight and wet.

I need to research how to wipe them away. Perhaps Pac Man will appear on the Navi screen???

There's a "Clear Breadcrumbs" selection in the setup screen (No clue what page) I've done it on mine once just to see what it does... (amazingly it clears the breadcrumbs)

If I think of it on the way home tonight I'll futz around with it and see if I can find it again.

Talking I'll try that futzin myself.

I have never dove that deeply with the Navi Menus yet. But I expected there was a way to refresh the breadcrumbs.

I'll follow both your advice. But I am warning you, I may wipe out the entire continental USA and be left with just breadcrumbs!

OK, the breadcrumbs are gone. I followed Rets advice and turned off Track Route in the 1st Menu. The office park where I work no longer looks bullet ridden. Did see anything about turning off Breadcrumbs Brew, but maybe your 2 year old can fill me in!

Now if I did it right, the continental US & Canada have not been deleted into oblivion!

I think I'll have my taxes finished this weekend. Time to start reading the manuals.....

I thought the breadcrumbs feature was only on the MDX. Yay, something else for my paper.
