Making Measurements on the Map Display Area
You can measure the distance and heading between any
points displayed in the Map Display area:
- On the toolbar, click , then click on the point on the
map from which to start the measurement. The start point
is then marked with a small square symbol.
- Then, as you move the mouse cursor away from the start
point, MobileMapper Office will calculate the length and
heading from the current location of the cursor to this
point
- If you click on a second point, a straight line will appear
on the map between the start point and the second point.
MobileMapper Office will also start calculating the dis-
tance and heading from the current location of the cursor
to the second point, plus the total length from the mea-
surement’s start point.
- To stop measuring distances and headings on the map,
press the Esc key.

keyboard, press the Del key. A warning message asks
you to confirm the delete operation

the feature, or the No button to cancel this operation.
