Easy, create a favorite POI in Perth then create likewise for one in Canberra. Then look manually position in Nuvi your present position in either the POI in Perth or in Canberra. Then look in Favourite and viola, you have the distance reported between your position and Perth or Canberra depending where you set your default position

Hello,
When I connect my nuvi265 to the computer via USB cable, it just displays a single line. How to get screen shots of the nuvi265 when it is operating?

Thanks for any suggestion.

In some situation screen shots of errors are very useful esp routing problems etc but
nothing beats a gdb file from Mapsource pin pointing the error. Using Mapsource, mappers can
easily and quickly find and fix the errors. No need to guess or estimate position.

Good luck buddy
