Creating and Editing Waypoints

A waypoint is any point on the Graphic Map that you

store in memory. Waypoints are also known as “My

Locations” or “Favorites” in some GPS Units. You can

easily create waypoints in MapSource and then transfer

them to your GPS unit. You can also load waypoints

from your GPS unit into MapSource and then edit

them. To send and receive information from your GPS

unit, see page 12.

Creating Waypoints

When you create a waypoint, MapSource automatically

names the waypoint based on its location. If you create

a waypoint on an existing map feature, MapSource

bases the waypoint name on the feature. If you create

a waypoint on an open location, MapSource names the

waypoint with a number. Each waypoint you create

appears in the Waypoints tab on the left side of

the window.

To create a waypoint:

1. Click the Waypoint tool or click Tools >

Waypoint.

2. Locate the place and then click anywhere on

the Graphic Map to create a waypoint at that

exact spot. To create a waypoint in the center

of the Graphic Map, press Ctrl + W on your

keyboard. The Waypoint Properties dialog box

appears.

Waypoint Properties dialog box

3. Make changes to the waypoint properties

as necessary. Click More Details to view all

available waypoint properties.

4. Click OK to save the waypoint. Click Cancel to

exit without creating the waypoint.
