If your quest objective is out of your current zone, there will be the golden Q next to the appropriate zone where the objective is.
To disable the Transparent Map, go to System > Character Config > UI > General > Map Settings > Restore map when not moving = Yes

My tip: While on Autorun: Press "X" to open map > Press "X" again to select Map, then you can use Right Stick to manipulate the map to see where you need to go. Your "You are here icon" updates in real time so I find it very handy.

Just keep in mind that doing this disables your Camera with the right stick but just press "X" again to close map and restore Camera.
