Favorite symbols |
Your TomTom device uses a star by default to show the location of favorites in the Map Browser. One of the ways you can personalize the Map Browser and your device menus is by changing this favorite symbol. You can have different symbols for each of your existing favorites. You can change this symbol using HOME or you can create your own here: create.tomtom.com. Tip: Your new symbol replaces your old symbol, which is backed up automatically on your computer. Note: This feature may not be supported on your device. Make sure you are using the latest version of the TomTom application. Adding a favorite symbol Ensure that your device is connected to your computer and then do the following:
You can then choose from favorite symbols available in the online shop and on your computer. Tip: You can search for items (by name or description) using the Search box at the top of the page. To return to a complete list, delete the text in the search field and click Search. Make sure you have selected All in the View list. Click More Info to get a description of the favorite symbol you are interested in.
Note: Once downloaded, you can rename the symbol to, for example, altfav_hotel.bmp for an existing favorite called "hotel" or altfav_campsite.bmp for an existing favorite called "campsite". You can do this renaming in the skins folder on your device using file explorer. The filename for a favorite must match the name of the favorite on your device or the symbol will not be visible! |
