Using Google Maps Possibilities This feature (using Google Maps) is a lot more powerful than the old one (using Google Earth). Of course you can do all familiar things, such as adding, removing, renaming waypoints etc. But they can be performed much easier. You will like this even more: using Google Maps it is possible to display your route! Not as just straight lines (as in Google Earth), but the complete route, following the roads you will ride or drive. Activate Executing JavaScript must be enabled in your web browser to use this feature! Creating, editing and displaying files To create, edit and display your itineraries (or POI files), you can forget all you have learned about using Google Earth. Copying from one application to another is no longer needed, because Google Maps if fully integrated into Tyre: together they are just one application. Adding new waypoints has never been easier: just click on the map somewhere. Do you want to relocate a waypoint? Drag it to another location and drop it there. It is as simple as that. Edit existing or new waypoints? Just click on it and a popup screen will appear that offers you all you need: information about the name, the longitude and latitude; the possibility to rename, delete, zoom, etc. As described above: you don't need the pages that describe how to use Google Earth. But the second half of the page that describes how to create itineraries using Google Earth, also contains some remarks on creating waypoints in general. Those remarks are important to consider on creating waypoints using Google Maps as well. To read them, click here. Click on the image to see a more detailed example Google Earth Do you still want to use Google Earth? That is possible: Waypoints can be copied to Tyre just like before. A new speedbutton has been added: it will activate Google Earth and display your waypoints (if you have them in your list). Do you want to use Google Earth like in the older versions? That is possible too: To activate Google Earth, open the 'Options' window and check the 'Use Google Earth' option. That is all! Tyre will switch from using Google Maps to using Google Earth instead.
