course>settings>always display?

Can someone clarify when you select a course, then go to settings>always display and settings>course points- what does this do? Is it to do with the course line drawn out over the navigation map display?

Is there a way of turning off the 'Ride Northwest' text at the top of the screen when navigating?

Always display will draw the route on the map page all the time even when not following that course.

I don't think that there is anyway to disable the text at the top of the map page.

Update: You can switch the text off. See posting #4 below.

Yup. If you were to say have 5 courses saved and all set to display, you'd see all of them. This could be useful and/or confusing if the courses overlapped each other.

There isn't. But there should be. It's useless waste of screen space.

Go to

Settings -> Activity Profiles -> <name of profile you wish to change> -> Map -> Guide Text

thanks, i thought Guide Text was the turn-by-turn instructions. I have to agree with TFLPA, it is a useless waste of valuable screen space to be told I am RIDING NORTHWEST.
They should really get you to write the next instruction manual for them :X

I think I turned that off yesterday after the race, today it was clear on the screen at top, until nearing town where it demanded that I 'ride to the endpoint" which really wasn't helpful.
