|
|
Toggle between head-up and north-up orientation of the map. Only available outside the flight line corridor! When inside the corridor, the view will automatically switch to head-up mode; outside the corridor, it will revert to north-up mode if was selected beforehand (got to Auto zoom settings to modify this function). |
Toggle between centering of the map on airplane (airplane is static, flight line moves) or flight line (flight line static, airplane moves). |
|
Show/hide the ID of lines
Toggle the display of the line ID at both ends of the flight line (also applies to pilot display).
|
Show/hide the ID of images
