In TIKI Navigator you don't have to change mode to take a bearing. Just point the mouse at one position and drag the mouse to another position to get the bearing and the distance between the two points. You can take serial bearings by starting the next bearing at the end of the last one. You can also toggle between true and magnetic bearings.

To create or edit a route you enter Route mode. Here you can add, move or delete waypoints with the mouse. All waypoints are numbered, but you can also name them. When you leave the Route mode, all waypoints are locked to prevent accidental changes.
