Electronic Ruler
The electronic ruler enables you to measure the bearing and distance between points
on the enroute chart. When active, JeppView draws a line from the starting point to
the pointer position with bearing, distance and terrain elevation. In the example
below, note the following:
• 024T indicates the true bearing.
• 035M indicates magnetic bearing.
• 23.79 NM indicates the distance along the ruler.
• 1000/2250 feet indicates the approximate lowest and highest terrain along
the ruler.
To measure bearing and distance between points:
1. Point to the location to measure from.
2. Hold down the SHIFT key, and then press and hold the mouse button.
3. While holding down the SHIFT key, drag the pointer to the end point.
NOTE
To display the distance and terrain measurements in a different unit, click
Tools > Options and change the Distance units on the Measurements tab.

symbols associated with that theme. JeppView provides several preset themes,
which you can customize according to your own needs.
