nuvi765
By default the saved favorites list appears to be sorted by the distance
from my house. How can I sort it alphabetically?

Thanks in advance... Bob

Unfortunately I think that option may have been removed as part of the
dumbing down process that Garmin has applied to the Nuvi range. I have two
older Garmin units that by default find Waypoints (or 'Favorites' as they now
call them) that are nearest to your current position, but there's also an
option to find by name which lists them alphabetically. That's obviously been
deemed far too difficult and confusing for the modern user so they simply
removed the second option.
