Your screen should look something like this. Each panel can be moved around by clicking and dragging on an empty part of the panel.

Navigating the map

  • Move around the map by clicking and dragging on an empty space in the viewer.
  • There are three ways to zoom in cartouche:
    • The buttons on the zoom controller in the upper-left corner of the map viewer will zoom in and out, and the vertical bar allows for immediate zooming to a specific level.
    • Double-clicking any point on the map will zoom in and center the map on that point.
    • Scrolling up with your mouse wheel will zoom in on a certain point, and scrolling down will zoom out, keeping the mouse pointer's location in the same location."
