Looking for a way to make road names a little easier to read. Zoom level or change route line color perhaps?? Thanks !
Hi @TurboJoe ,
Have a look at our keyboard shortcuts - if you want to view the road name below the route you can hide the route, for example.
Not being able to see road names while actively navigating makes navigating harder. Hiding the route to see street names during active navigation is not a viable solution. I use DMD2 for my off-road riding. During my current trip, when I switched from on-road riding with Kurviger to off-road riding with DMD2, I was pleasantly surprised that I could see street names because DMD2 displays street names on top of the route line (see screen shot below). While I was riding, I also noticed that DMD2 kept the street and street names visible by offsetting the route line slightly from the street and its inline name.
This screenshot is a split screen with DMD2 above Kurviger below.
Hi @JerryG,
I’m not quite sure I understand you correctly, but in Kurviger the street names are displayed on top of the route during active navigation, too.
Curious; you are right, but with a twist. When I start navigating, the names are on top. Before I start navigating, the name are underneath. This means the planing process is handicapped by the names being hidden, not the navigating.
Exactly, those are two different areas and different map views: “planning mode” and “active navigation”.
If you’re planning on the Kurviger website, you can hide the route with Ctrl + R to see e.g. street names below it. The way we are currently implementing the maps in planning view, it is not possible to display street names over the route there. However, we plan on optimizing that at some point.
At home, on my computer, I’ll use control-r; thank you. Is there a similar shortcut I can use while planning on the road while using the app?
Currently not.
I wondering about this topic.
Long time ago the Route was not possible ti see about this road names.
Long names caused a problem to me not seeing where the route is going.
The priotity is, that you see where to drive and not reading while driving, isnt it?For my point of voiew,the name of a road is an Info i cant do anything with.
Navigation about seeing where to go and hearing if i must turn, that is the important information.
Only my 50 cents
