Nokia Maps 3d View

3 replies · 2,542 views · Started 26 May 2007

Well i was using the Nokia maps software to navigate the other day and lets says its quite hard without the voice navigation especially when you change direction is their a way to stay behind the moving so your always looking at it from behind. In 3d view if you move in behind it eventually loses the + pointer as it isn't locked.

If your in proper navigation (by going to plan route, so you get voice guidance etc) the + and square round it are replaced with a ^ arrow representing your vehicle anyway.

As everebody seems to complain on this forum let me add mine:

When zooming out of the map view the streets disappear way to quickly. Now it is normal that smaller streets disappear, but some of the bigger streets in my region disappear at a level one still needs them. My guess is that the level-of-detail switching is set to a much smaller screen, and nokia failed to adjust the value for the big screen on the n95.

Zooming in and out seems ok on my n95 map. I find it has many levels of graduation. I use the * key and press as many times as i need to zoom in and same with # key for zooming out.
