When tracking your current position, the toolbar buttons on the left of
the page are hidden, so that you can see as much of the menu as possi-
ble. You can change what's visible on the map display at any time,
though, simply by touching the screen. When you do, a map cursor will
appear along with a toolbar that contains several map display buttons.
Using the Map Display Toolbar
The map display toolbar buttons are used with the touch screen to con-
trol what part of the map you see. You can zoom all the way out to see
your position relative to the continental U.S., or zoom in close on an
area hundreds of miles away to see whether you'll be making a left or
right turn at the end of your trip.
The Map Display Toolbar.
The Map Display Toolbar is partially transparent, like all of the buttons
and overlay boxes that are drawn covering portions of your map. You can
control the level of transparency, if you want to make these overlays
more readable (by decreasing transparency) or if you want to make the
map beneath more visible (by increasing transparency). For details on
controlling this and other settings, see Sec. 4: Main Menu Options.
Clear Cursor
immediately clears the cursor and toolbar from the
screen and centers the map on your current position.
Move Map
is the easiest way of shifting the visible map area. When
you press the Move Map button, it becomes selected (highlighted in
blue), and that lets you drag the map with a touch, focusing on areas
other than your current location. When the Move Map button is se-
lected, press anywhere on the map display and the cursor will appear
there. Drag your finger across the screen (still pressing down) and the
map and cursor will move with it.
