Master Map Window
The largest window is the Master Map window. It displays the basic
world background map you'll use to prepare Map Border Files and Map
Files for your GPS. You can close the other list windows if you're not
using them. (You can always open them later when you need them.

in the top right

corner of each window frame. You cannot close the Master Map
window.

Master Map window shows a rectangle map border around Lake Eu-

faula, along with a route, waypoints and event marker icons. The Zoom

Range is 50, which indicates that it's 50 miles across the map.

Tips:

• You can use the Print Map command to print what's displayed in

the window. This lets you make a quick, customized, paper backup
map for your travels. (A prudent navigator never relies on only one
source of navigation information.) Because of variances in monitor
size, screen resolution, paper size and printer drivers, what you see
in the Master Map window may not fit your paper page exactly.
