Trip Planning on Your Desktop
You can use CoPilot's desktop functions to map out routes and print
maps and driving directions before getting on the road. Desktop trip planning is
an additional feature of CoPilot that is in no way connected to using your Pocket
PC for route guidance.
On the following pages you will find brief descriptions of CoPilot’s desktop trip
planning capabilities. For more detailed descriptions,open CoPilot Help from
the desktop application (Help menu > Help Contents and Search,or click
the Help button on the toolbar). Go to Desktop T rip Planning in the
Contents tab.
To begin planning a trip on your desktop,click the Planning icon in the sidebar
to the left of the map. Using the drop-down menus you can select from a
number of planning features. Many of these features can also be accessed from
the toolbar. Place your cursor on any toolbar button without clicking to see
what it does.
