    Default How to Remove the GPS blue dot from IGO PRIMO 9.6.29.596752

    Hello everyone!

    I would like to request your assistance by asking if someone has any idea how to get rid of the annoying little GPS dot?
    That dot keeps following the 3d icon car and it's nerve wrecking!
    I currently have installed the IGO PRIMO 9.6.29.596752 on a Samsung Note 4

    Thank you in advance for all the help you can provide,

    Kind regards
    MMARQUES

    That dot is the actual GPS location (not the snap to road that your car cursor is located) It's useful in walking mode; but if you want to remove it, edit sys.txt to have

    Hi osiris4isis

    Sorry, just one question: Does the "; " sign has to be included after the text "show_gps_pos=0" or not?
    I have not yet tested, but I was wondering if you could let me know before I try it later on

    thank you

    I just answer similar question in another thread, LOL! The ';' is a comment indicator, it just mean anything after it is a comment (and ignored). So a ';' with nothing behind means no comment. It doesn't matter if you have it or not.

    Hi osiris4isis

    Thank you so much for your fast reply! I will give it a try later on!
    Kind regards

    Edit:

    Hi Everyone!

    I have tried to remove the gps blue dot according to the indicatons given, but I'm afraid it didn't work out :-(
    I have edited my sys.txt, but without success. Since I am quite new at this forum and still giving my first steps, I was wondering what did I do wrong or if there is any command line in my sys.txt that is overruling the command " "show_gps_pos=0"????

    Below I am putting the content of my sys.txt
    Thank you in advance for all the help I can get!

    Spoiler: sys.txt

    Are you using "off road" routing? If so, I think you can't turn dot off. Usually people wants the dot since it help to indicate accuracy of the GPS and when you're not on the road (like inside a building) it tell where you're at.

    Hi osiris4isis

    no, I am not using "off road" routing. I am just using normal motorways.
    I have tried the command line suggested by Sujek and it has WORKED
    No more annoying blue dot following the car icon!
