Correct. However, please note that the map selection box is only displayed if "View > Show Toolbars > View" is ticked (which I'd guess is not enabled in Corrochan's Mapsource).

@meorhamdan, and even then (continuing from above post), you should not include (tick) Map when receiving data from device as sometimes there are some POIs maps that are not installed in Mapsource. This includes, among others, MFM Road POIs map.
