Figure 2- Guide to some
of
the features
of
the MapPad programme.
To start MapPad switch the Newton on and from the main screen select the MapPad icon,
or the icon
of
the map you wish to display (all maps available in MapPad are displayed
as
separate icons). To switch between maps when running MapPad (e.g., different scales
of
the same region) select the Map Chooser option (Fig. 3). The Map Chooser is accessed by
pressing the title bar at the top
of
the screen, or the Map icon at the bottom
of
the screen
(Figure 2). From the Map Chooser select the map you want. Alternatively if you have the
same map loaded at different scales use the up and down arrows next to the
Extras icon to
move from one map to another.
Other options are accessed via the Map icon are:
1.
A control button
to
let you move to set positions on the map (e.g., centre, left edge, top
right corner). At the top
of
the pop-up menu are a group
of
radiating arrows with a
diamond in their centre.
Press any
of
the arrows to move to that map edge or corner, or
the diamond to move to the centre
of
the map.
2. A choice
to
change
to
a larger scale
of
the current map or to go to the small scale world
map.
3. Access
to
the Waypoints List.
Options accessed through the title bar at the top
of
the screen are:
1.
Toggle waypoints on/off.
2. Toggle track log on/off.
3. Location
4. Header information for the map - i.e., map projection, map units, geographical extent
of
map boundaries. A thumb nail sketch
of
the entire map is also displayed with the extent
of
the current screen view shown.
Scrolling incrementally about the map is achieved by pressing the diamond-shaped scroll
tool in the lower left corner
of
the screen (Figure 2). A single press will scroll the map a
single increment. Holding the pen down will scroll the map until the pen is lifted.
