To Resize the Map Area Using the Resize Tools
The map resize tool runs perpendicular to the tab area. If the secondary and primary maps

• Drag the bar left to expose the area of the primary map you want to see.
• Drag the bar right to expose the area of the secondary map you want to see.
• Click the right arrow on the resize tool once to move the secondary map 1/4 of the
screen width. You can repeat this step until the primary map is no longer visible.
• Click the left arrow on the resize tool once to move the primary map 1/4 of the
screen width. You can repeat this step until the secondary map is no longer visible.
• Double-click the bar above the right arrow to show only the secondary map.
• Double-click the bar below the left arrow to show only the primary map.
• Double-click the bar between the right and left arrows to display an equal percentage
of both the secondary and primary maps.
