    Well Darren I know I have been a victim of moderation and often I have 
thought unjustly so perhaps moderation on that list is not too bad.  Anyone 
would think I was being awkward or very difficult when often I am not.  I just 
like the freedom of speech.  Don't you think Stephen Gigger for instance is 
very knowledgable?

      because of the faulty moderation that went on there. my partner neft for 
that reason as well because she got sick and tired of it.

              Hi Saqib,

               

              This description is no help at all if you have an N86, since the 
submenus are not being read out.

               

              It looks to me as if maps is completely inaccessible on the N86.

               

              The only bit that is accessible is when you press options, you 
get Account, Settings and Support.  That is all I can get anyway.

               

              Thanks for a great effort, but it looks as though this won't work 
on some of the newer phones.

               

              All the best

               

              Steve

              Subject: [talks-uk] Nokia Ovi Maps3.3 full interface description

               

              Nokia Ovi Maps 3.3 main menu description. 

               

              This description is for the new Nokia Maps 3.3 main menu 
interface. 

               

              Usually when you open the application you are greted with the 
main menu which consists of 10 icons. There are two rows of 4 icons which are 
displayed on the screen and a further 2 which can be seen at the bottom left of 
the screen. The display almost looks like a 4-4-2 formation. For those who 
follow football will know what I'm relating to. 

               

              When you first open the Ovi Maps 3.3 app the drive icon is 
highlighted. The drive icon is located on the left of the screen, second one 
down from the top left icon. If you select this drive icon you will be 
presented with a further 3 icons. The highlighter will be on the first of the 3 
icons presented which is on the left of the other two icons. The first icon is 
called drive home in this submenu. Selecting this will prompt the app to start 
navigation to your home location. 

               

              The second icon in this sub menu is called Set Destination. 
Pressing select on this will bring up a accessible menu where you can select an 
option of your choice. These choices consist of History, Favourites, Search and 
finally From Map. The From Map is the 4th option. 

               

              The third and final icon from this Drive submenu is called Map. 
If you select this you will be shown a Map view of your current location. From 
this Map you can press select and you will then be presented with a accessible 
menu. The first of these options is Show Details.This will give you further 
information in text so You will know exactly where you are currently standing. 
For example a name of the road and the number of the property in which you may 
be standing by. Second option is Share location. Third option is Save Place. 
4th option is Send. I have now covered the drive section of Ovi Maps 3.3.

               

               

              My Position Icon

              From the main icon screen remember when I pointed out that the 
highlighter is stationed on the Drive icon in which I have described in detail 
above. Above this icon is the My position icon which is situated on the top 
left of the screen. It's the first icon in the first row of icons. To get to 
this you just arrow up once from the Drive icon. With in this map view you can 
hit select to bring up an accessible menu. These consist of Show Details,Share 
Location, Save Place and the final option in the list is Send. 

               

              Find Places 

              The Find Places icon is the second icon in from the top left next 
to the My Position Icon. Pressing select on this will bring up a search box. 
Once you type in your search you should be presented with a result of your 
search.

               

              Share Location 

              The Share Location Icon is the third icon in the top ro after the 
Find Places icon. You will have to create a Nokia account to take advantage of 
this feature. 

               

              Favourites 

              The Favourites Icon is the 4th and last icon in the top row. This 
is on the right of the Share Location icon. Pressing select on this will bring 
up the Favourites menu. The options here are Sincronise with Ovi, Places, Routs 
and Create New Collection. 

               

              Second row of 4 icons description 

              The First option in  this row  of icons is the Drive option. I 
have covered this earlier on in this document. 

               

              Walk

              The Walk option resides next door to the Drive icon. Selecting 
this option will bring up a submenu of three icons. The first icon is Walk 
Home. This will trigger the navigation mode and you will be ready to outtake 
your journey on foot. Icon 2 is the Set Destination option. From heare you can 
select an address from a previous history or favourites. There are also options 
to search or select from map. As the map it self is inaccessible I think this 
option is not applicable for the VI user. The final option in the Walk submenu 
is help. Sadly this is also inaccessible.

               

              Weather 

              The Weather icon is the third icon in the second row and this is 
inaccessible.

               

              Events

              The Events Icon is the final icon in the second row of four. This 
feature is also inacfcessible.

               

              Third row of 2 icons

              The third row which is the bottom row has two icons. Both are 
inaccessible. The first is called Loanly Plannet and the neighbouring icon is 
called Michelin. 

               

              I hope this description is a help to those who are using the 
application.
