To hide or display the status bar, click View > Status Bar.

The Status Bar displays at the bottom of the JeppView screen and displays the
following elements:

• current time

• latitude/longitude

• altitude at the cursor position,

• distance represented across the width of the Enroute Charts View.

NOTE

In some

chart projections

, the screen width value may change as you

move the cursor north and south, as a function of the projection’s
distortion of the earth’s surface.

Toggle between Universal Time (UTC) and local time by clicking once on top of the
values in that particular display box. The time used in JeppView is associated to the
time set on your computer.

• Right-click on the local time (as set in Windows Date and Time Properties) to

switch between 12/24 format.

• Left-click on the time to switch between local time and UTC. UTC always

displays in a 24 hour format.

• Toggle between the screen distance and latitude/longitude displays by clicking

once on top of the values in the display box on the right side of the status
bar.

Under Tools > Options > Display, set preferences for the latitude/longitude
display in either minutes and decimal minutes, or minutes and seconds. You can also
specify the number of decimal places to be shown; the maximum is three decimal
places.
