2013 navigation system map scolling

Has anyone found a good way of doing it, somtimes I like to find spots to stop on the road. On our Garmin it worked great but not with this thing, it's hard to get the map to move.

Saw this the other day, but have to go try this myself.

I remember the last time I played around with it, I think it tried to make it a POI (point of interest) wherever I touched the map... I'll get back to you....

I played with some more and I did get to work a little better but it's still a little unhandy (I'm being nice).

I've been trying this out, and found that it's not all that bad.

When I want to drag the map around, I first touch the screen and HOLD it for a second or two. THEN drag where I want it to go.

Doesn't do anything strange for me. Just recenters the map where I want it to be.

I will try that, I have been trying to scroll it like I did my Garmin and my tablet. I did fire my Garmin back up so I could get the altitude reading that Ford left off the 2013 nav system.
