6.3.1 2D and 3D Map
Views
Besides the classical top down
view of the map (called 2D
mode), you have the possibility
to tilt the map to have a
perspective view (3D mode)
that gives a view similar to what
is seen through the windshield
with the possibility to see far
ahead.
NOTE:
You may nd that 2D mode is
more useful in North-up Map mode
when looking for a certain part of
the map or an object to select as
the destination. On the other hand,
3D mode in Track-up Cockpit
mode with Smart Zoom makes
navigation very comfortable. The
description of these modes will
come later in this manual.
NOTE:
3D view is only useful for
navigation. As you zoom out, the
view angle will automatically be
raised. Finally 2D view will be
reached. When you zoom back in,
3D view will gradually return.
NOTE:
Using the Advanced settings, you
can force Map mode to always
start in 2D North-up view and/or
Cockpit mode to always start in
3D Track-up view (7.6.1.2). You
can still rotate and tilt the maps in
either mode, but the next time you
enter this screen, the preset look
will reappear.
It is easy to change between 2D
and 3D modes. You have two
options. You can use the Tilt up
and down button (6.5.3.) to tilt
the map seamlessly between
2D and all 3D angles, or you
can use the switch in the Quick
menu (6.7.2) to quickly switch
between the two modes.
