Moving Around the Map: Zoom & Cursor Arrow Keys
The map is presented from a bird's eye view perspective. The current
zoom range shows in the lower left corner of the screen.
1. Press the
ZIN key (zoom in) to move in closer and see greater detail in
a smaller geographic area.
2. Press the
ZOUT key (zoom out) to move farther away and see less map
detail, but a larger geographic area.
When you are walking or riding in a vehicle, the map will automatically
move as you move. This keeps your current location roughly centered
on the screen.
You can manually pan or scroll the map northward, southward, east-
ward or westward by using the arrow keys, which launches the cross-
hair map cursor. This allows you to look at map places other than your
current position. To clear the cursor, press
EXIT, which jumps the map
back to the current position or the last known position.
The selected airport to the northwest is 4.2 miles away.
Tip:
Use the cursor to determine the distance from your current position
(or last known position, when working indoors) to any map object or
location. Simply use the arrow keys to position the cursor over the
object or place. The distance, measured in a straight line, appears in
the data box at the bottom of the map. Press
EXIT to clear the cursor.
Tip:
The iFINDER PhD has an extremely handy Cursor Undo feature
that lets you instantly return to the previous location you were
looking at. It works like this: Use the cursor (arrow keys) to scroll
the map to some far away location or waypoint. Press
EXIT clear the
