It is not, or more precise: it depends on your firmware.
I have one device, which is only showing POIs which are part of the
index. So here you can suppress POIs, if you don't put them in the
index. 
But I have also two newer devices, which seem to ignore the index
completly and always search for POIs in the image. Here you cannot
suppress any POIs. And even worse, this is of course much slower :(

Yes, I already knew that, but thanks. I thought there might be a way to be
more restrictive but I now think it's just that the All POIs search is just
what it says it is: it displays *ALL* POIs. It's doing exactly what I told
it to do. I sometimes use that option when I'm on a trip somewhere and
looking for a POI and don't know which category to pick at the top level
search. Having a list of nearby POIs often helps but one has to scroll
through a lot of extra stuff to find anything useful. That's what I was
trying to avoid and that's why I asked the question.

I'm resolved now. Thanks to all.

Hi Dave,

when you search for all POIs, then GPS look for all POI that are near 
your current position. It doesn't use index for that kind of search, so 
you can't exclude POIs selectively. You would have to remove them form map.


You can try to search for a category of POIs or search by name to get 
only a selection of POIs.
