Also, can you tell if there is an arrow indicating on mini map at what direction is that legendary? Or in order to see it you have to press tab to get this huge map?

It will show the star on minimap if it is within range of the minimap, but no arrows when out of range of minimap.
If its that important, press tab before you leave an area to make sure. That is all...
No, I refuse! There must be an option to turn this feature off! There's no challenge!
The challenge should bein regard to combat and progression, not collecting your loot.
The fact is, this game is an orgy of obscene graphics and overbearing visuals. Add to that, the way many players (especially pub games) run ahead, wander off path and trigger drops for you when you may be entirely unaware of such. A perfect set item may be left laying off-screen, only to dissipate into the ether void when you leave the game.
Some further info gathered from my testing time on the current PTR build:
- The minimap star vanishes when it reaches an edge, so you either see the whole thing or nothing; the star on your big map is, as has already been stated, independent from the minimap and can be seen regardless of the distance to the drop.
- Both the minimap and big map marker remain until first pickup (or at the very least for several minutes)
- Marker persists even when going into town or dying
- Multiple markers possible; don't know if there's a limit to this, but at least I had 2 legendaries drop in Keep Depths lvl 2 and 2 stars were displayed on the map.
this is excellent. The last update to this was pretty good, but the marker would disappear too fast sometimes. I like it!

Legendaries are REALLY hard to miss now !
Notice the "Star" marker on the map which shows the location of the legendary!
Good job blizzard !

As long as you are still on the same map and level, it will show regardless of distance.
EDIT-in: I hope they also noted the feedback for not making the sound fade with distance, or at least an option for such.

Now I can turn the sound down while my daughter sleeps in the next room.
