Displaying maps
Now zoom in on the Edenton Lake turnpoint of this example. Adjust the zoom until the
scale in the lower left is about 5 miles. To turn the map display on, click on the green
button next to the reset (R) button in the toolbar. You should see a display similar to the
one below.
Moving Maps
Now that you have a close-up view of the Edenton Lake turnpoint, move the cursor back
and forth in the barograph pane until the display of the flight is just past the turnpoint as
shown above. To see the moving map at this point, use the following steps.
1. Move the mouse pointer over the active end of the flight trace near the pilot’s contest
number until you see a small window appear with the pilot’s name and altitude.
2. Click on the contest number to “lock” the display on that pilot. The small window
with the pilot’s name should now remain on when you move the mouse away.
3. Click on the triangular “play” button in the toolbar to start the animation playback.
Note that when the flight trace moves to the edge of the screen, the program
automatically scrolls the plot pane to keep the pilot in view.
