You can create a road, trail, or direct route using the Route tab, right-click feature, 

or the toolbar. Once you create a route, you can use the Route tab to view route 
directions, edit a route, and display routes on a map. 
Routes are calculated using the default routing preferences. To show/remove routing 
MapNotes, waypoint labels, state borders, and route vias, enable/disable GPS voice 
navigation, or to change the default speed, road type, or routing preference, see 

Setting Your Routing Preferences. 
Note  Routable roads require a routable DeLorme dataset. Routable trails require a 

topographic DeLorme dataset. For information, visit www.delorme.com or call

options, use the map resize tool to expose the right map window.
