Zoom Range (miles)

Master Map window shows a rectangle map border around Lake Eufaula,

along with a route, waypoints and event marker icons. The Zoom Range is 50,

which indicates that it's 50 miles across the map.

Tips:

• You can use the Print Map command to print what's displayed in the

window. This lets you make a quick, customized, paper backup map
for your travels. (A prudent navigator never relies on only one source
of navigation information.) Because of variances in monitor size,
screen resolution, paper size and printer drivers, what you see in the
Master Map window may not fit your paper page exactly.

• When your mouse pointer moves over a map feature or landmark

symbol, a Pop-up Tool Tip Box appears listing a name or description of
what the symbol represents.
