Thanks Ken. I suppose the change of the scroll wheel to zoom is ok but it takes some getting used to. Now I will have to use the hand instead of magnifier as my mouse feature of choice.

Interesting. It's nice to at least have the option to disable and enable routing via time-of-day and seasonal closures. Ideally, GPS software should be aware of time-of-day, day-of week, and season, and routing should be adjusted accordingly. But I have not yet seen a product that deals with time-of-day traffic restrictions based on actual time-of-day. They all simply avoid routing through there at all times, even if the restriction may be only for between the hours of 7 am to 9 am, and even if it happens to be a completely different time of day.

I realize this is not a trivial feature to implement, and there are several variables to consider.

This latest version is not worth the trouble. I downloaded this file (MapSource 6.16.1), copied it to the folder where the previous version is installed, and then double clicked on it which updated the previous version. Then I ran it installed it, and found that when I loaded previously saved (select) maps and waypoints that the selected maps appeared OK, and the waypoints too, BUT the 'tags' for the waypoints were not there, and I could not select those waypoints

I quickly uninstalled and went back to the previous version. Don't bother with it.

I did an upgrade via the program itself and it seems to work fine. When I open a previous gdb file, the routes, tracks and waypoints display fine and behave as I would expect.

I downloaded it and installed on top of old version and everything worked fine. I even used the beta ver with no problems. My favorite change IS the scroll wheel zoom.

Strange! That's my least favourite change. I guess it is all what you are used to.

I'm with Karen. I never liked the vertical panning with the scroll wheel. I've gotten used to zooming with the scroll wheel in Google Earth, Streets&Trips, etc.

I did as you and Karen. I just downloaded the latest and ran the installer so it installs right over the previous version. Works just fine.

jparnold, what do you mean by waypoint "tags" aren't there? I would like to test this but I don't understand what they are. Do you mean the symbols (icons) that are assigned to them to display their location on the map?

What I have trouble with is the mini map. The hand moves the map instead of the highlighted area which I find totally non-intuitive. I usually don't use it as it is annoying.
