-====== Navigation along route/track ====== +{{ :manual:user_guide:ic_path_directions_alt.png}} 
 +====== Navigation Along Route ======
 ---- ----
-Unlike point-to-point navigation where the route is calculated by Locus Map and is based on external navigation service, recorded or imported tracks or pre-planned routes stored in Data manager are autonomous itemsOnline calculating is needed only for rendering voice commands in case the track does not contain them itself.+Unlike in **[[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:point-to-point|Navigate to...]]** feature where the route is calculated from start to end by a routing service, **Navigation along a route navigates recorded tracks, imported or planned routes** stored in your own Locus track/route database.  
 +===== 1. Select a Route ===== 
 +==== From Track/route manager ==== 
 + 
 +  - **select a route** and tap it to display its [[manual:user_guide:tracks:management#track_detail_screen|detail screen >>]] 
 +  - tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_directions_alt.png?nolink&30|}} navigation button in the bottom panel and select **Navigation**\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace6.gif?nolink |}} 
 + 
 +==== On map ==== 
 + 
 +  - **find** your route on map and **tap it** 
 +  - tap {{:manual:user_guide:ic_arrow_simple_right_alt.png?nolink&30|}} on the popup  
 +  - select {{:manual:user_guide:ic_directions_alt.png?nolink&30|}}**Navigation/guidance** > **Navigation**\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace28.gif?nolink |}} 
 +  - check **Navigate from selected point** if you want to be navigated from the place you tapped. Otherwise you'll be navigated from the nearest place on the route to your actual location\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace34.png?nolink |}} 
 +   
 +Locus Map **automatically generates navigation commands** along the route in places of the most remarkable direction changes. 
 +==== Reverse direction ==== 
 + 
 +To be navigated in **reverse direction** of the route, check "Navigate reversely":\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace33.png?nolink |}} 
 + 
 +<WRAP center round important> 
 +Navigation commands on a reversed route may not reflect traffic situations accurately. **Recommended for offroad use only!** 
 +</WRAP> 
 +==== Link with presets ==== 
 +If you need to **change app preset temporarily** during the navigation (e.g. cursor is shifted, map rotation is on, the screen is turned permanently on etc., here you can select TO BE CONTINUED...  
 +===== 2. START Navigation ===== 
 +  * **At the start of the route**\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace29.png?nolink |}} 
 +  * **Away from the start of the route**\\ In this case Locus** guides you to the nearest point on your route**.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace30.png?nolink |}} 
 +  * **Away from the start of the route - auto recalculation**\\ If you have **[[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:settings#auto-recalculation|auto-recalculation with route priority]]** set, the selected routing service **calculates route to the nearest point on your route**.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace31.png?nolink |}}\\ <WRAP center round important> 
 +**Auto-recalculation with point priority ignores your selected route and creates a new route to the nearest via point or directly to the finish.** 
 +</WRAP>
  
-<wrap important>To use this method successfully, you need GPS location fixed on or nearby the track.</wrap> 
-===== Instructions ===== 
-  * **select a track** from the Data manager and tap it for [[manual:user_guide:tracks:management#track_detail_screen|details >>]] 
-  * tap ..... navigation button in the bottom panel and select **Navigation** 
-  * if your track does not contain built-in navigation commands, a dialog //Generate navigation// appears: 
-    * //number of commands// - sets number of rendered waypoints on track for which Locus Map adds navigation voice commands 
-    * //start navigation// - when checked the navigation starts immediately after confirmation. If unchecked, only track with highlighted waypoints remains. 
-    * //Navigate// - confirms the dialog and starts navigation/displays the track with the generated waypoints 
-  * if your track/route contains navigation commands, the //navigation begins immediately//
