Button Description

3D Settings

Use 3D settings to determine which of the present 3D objects are shown on

the map, and adjust the level of 3D visual detail. The options are as follows:

• Landmarks: Landmarks are 3D artistic or block representations of

prominent or well-known objects. 3D landmarks are only available in

selected cities and countries.

• Elevated Roads: Complex intersections and vertically isolated roads

(such as overpasses or underground tunnels) are displayed in 3D.

• Building Visibility: Full 3D city building data that represents actual

building size and position on the map. Building data is limited to the

city centres of major cities in the US and Europe.

• Terrain Detail Level: 3D terrain map data shows changes in terrain,

elevations or depressions in the land when you view the map, and

use it to plot the route map in 3D when you navigate.

Colour Profiles

IGO 8 is able to show the map and the menus in different colours during the

day and during the night. Select the colour profiles to be used in each

mode, and select the automatic or manual switching between the daytime

and night colour profiles.

Elevation on 2D Map

2D maps can also display 3D information. These top-down maps can

display elevation by colours and shading.

Street Names During

Navigation

Street names and POI icons can be disturbing on the map during

navigation. With this switch you can suppress these map elements when

IGO 8 is following your position on the map. If you move the map, both the

street names and POI icons reappear immediately.

Lane Information

Some maps contain lane information to help you position your car in the

upcoming intersection. This setting tells IGO 8 whether to display this

information at the top or at the bottom of the map.
