Map Page Options Using the Panning Arrow - Overview
The Map Page pan function allows you to display an
arrow used to point at and identify items on the map,
and to move the map in order to view areas beyond the
current viewing area on the display.
The map panning function is activated from the
options menu on the Map Page. The CLICK STICK
moves the panning arrow (also referred to as the map
pointer) in the desired direction on the map page. If the
arrow moves to the edge of the map display, the map
will also move to reveal more map area. When the arrow
moves to the edge of the display, the map will take some
time to redraw the new area of the map.
Whenever the panning arrow is placed on a map
item, the name of that item will be highlighted. This
features applies to waypoints, roads, lakes, rivers ... nearly
everything that is displayed.
Pressing and releasing the CLICK STICK, marks
the arrow location or the map item information page. An
option menu allows you to: add it to the Favorites list,
add it to a route, project a waypoint from it, save it as
a waypoint, or view the sun and moon phase from it.
On-screen buttons at the bottom of the page allow you to
Goto the map item, display it on the map or to select ‘OK’
and return to the Map Page.
When using the panning arrow, pressing the FIND
button will display items with the panning arrow (map
pointer) location used as a reference point for nearest
items instead of your current location. Press the PAGE
button to return to the Main Map Page.
