Waypoints (user-created or preloaded in the map) will be displayed by their icons on the screen.

A visual indication of your movements (track) is displayed on the
map as an orange line with white dots. If the track has been saved,
it appears as a blue dashed line (color is user customizable). Also,
if you have a route activated, it is shown on the map as solid yellow
lines. (The trail colors can be modified.) A pink line is also
displayed that indicates the Position Destination Line. The
Position Destination Line is a straight line displaying LOS (line of
sight) from your current location to the next destination waypoint.
At the top right of the map is a north indicator that rotates to
