We identify various land types with different colors, and you may want
to temporarily turn some categories off for better viewing of some de-
tails. For example, in military reservations, the dark blue color nicely
identifies the area boundaries, but blue roads don't stand out as they
normally do. Before you build a custom the map, just remember to turn
the map category back on if you want it included in the custom map.
Routing
MapCreate Topo makes it easier than ever to plan an aviation or other
route based on navaids, POIs or land features.
Click the
C
REATE
R
OUTE
button (described fully in the manual and else-
where in the Help documentation) to activate the command. Then, simply
click on the desired navaids in order to make your route. Previous ver-
sions created an ordinary numbered waypoint where you clicked, which
often covered up the item you were routing to. Now, when you click on a
named item, a small red route dot appears on top of the item's symbol, and
the item's actual name and position appear in the route waypoint list.
When editing routes made in this manner, you can insert additional
route waypoints from the master map with a right click, but to delete a
point from the route, you must open the route waypoint list and right
click the point there.
Dynamic Pan Arrows
Previously, MapCreate versions panned the Master Map by clicking on
Pan Arrow Buttons that were fixed to the sides of the map window.
MapCreate 7 has eliminated those four buttons and replaced them with
white pop-up pan arrows. When you move the mouse pointer near the
edge of the map, the pointer becomes a Pan Arrow. Just click to see
more of the map in the direction indicated. Move the mouse pointer
away from the edge and it reverts to the previous command you had
selected. You can also point to the corners of the map to pan diagonally.
Pop-up Boxes
Pop-up info boxes for POIs, land features and interstate highway exits
now include more information. To display a pop-up box, move your mouse
pointer over the item at an appropriate zoom range. Depending on your
computer monitor size and resolution, these detailed pop-ups become
available beginning somewhere in the 50 to 30 mile zoom ranges. If you
don't see the desired information, just zoom in a little closer until it be-
comes available.
