Normally MioMap positions the map to keep the GPS position visible somewhere on
the map (when North-up orientation is selected), or always at the bottom centre of
the map (when Track-up orientation is selected).

If you manually move the map, it will freeze the map in the new position. To return to
the GPS position, use this Follow button.

Scaling or tilting the map also stops the automatic zooming or automatic tilting
respectively. To reactivate Smart Zoom, tap this button.

Note: When the Cockpit screen is open, you do not need to tap the Follow button.
Just wait for 30 seconds without tapping the screen, and MioMap will automatically
re-enable Lock-to-Position and/or Smart Zoom. If you tap the screen during this
period, the 30 seconds countdown will restart.

4.3.5 Cursor (No. 7)

As described earlier (Page 20), if you tap the map somewhere or select one specific
item in Find, it will become the selected point on the map, marked with a small red
dot and radiating red circles to make it conspicuous. You can use this point as
starting point, via point or destination for your route, you can search for a POI near it,
mark it with a pin, or save it as a POI.

Note: When GPS position is available, the Follow button will appear indicating that
you have disabled Lock-to-Position. Tapping the Follow button will re-enable the
position lock and move the cursor back to the current GPS position. The same
happens when MioMap restores Lock-to-Position automatically on the Cockpit
screen after 30 seconds of inactivity.

4.3.6 Map scale (No. 8)

The scale indicator is only available on the Map screen. In 2D map view it represents
the scale of the map. In 3D view it is the scale of the nearest part of the map only.

You can use it in both 2D and 3D modes to scale the map. Drag and pull it right to
zoom in, or left to zoom out.
