Pan	Tap to activate Pan mode. Tap an area of the map to center on, or tap and drag the map area to where you want to reposition the map. If you are using a controller that has arrow keys, you can use the arrow keys to pan even when the map is not in Pan mode. Alternatively, place two fingers on the screen and slide in the desired direction to move the view even when the map is not in Pan mode. To pan to a specific point or to pan to your current location, tap and select the appropriate option.
Zoom	Tap or to zoom in or out one zoom level at a time. Alternatively, place two fingers on the screen and stretch out to zoom in on the center of the video or pinch in to zoom out. Drag one finger across the screen to pan. To zoom to an area of interest, tap and hold the button and then drag a box around the area of interest.
Zoom extents	Tap to zoom to the map extents. You can configure the zoom extents so that part of the map is excluded. This is useful when, for example, you want to exclude a base station position that is several kilometers away. To do this, use the map pan and zoom tools so that the map shows the area of interest and then tap and hold Zoom extents and select Set user zoom extent. This is now the map view shown when you tap Zoom extents. To clear the custom view, tap and hold Zoom extents and select Clear user zoom extent. To create an area of interest, tap and hold Zoom extents and select Set area of interest. This is useful when, for example, you have a large job site and you want to view only the part you are currently working in. To return to this view, tap and hold Zoom extents and select View area of interest. The area of interest commands are available only when the map is in Plan view. If they are not available, tap and select Plan. When zooming it is useful to be able to return to the previous view. Tap and hold Zoom extents and select Zoom to previous, or press Ctrl + Z. The current position of the GNSS antenna is not considered part of the map extents unless it is currently being used for GPS search.
Orbit	Tap to orbit the data around an axis. Tap the map and then drag to rotate the view. The NE axes icon rotates accordingly, to show the orientation of the North and East elevations. The icon in the center of the map indicates the point of orbit.
Predefined view	Tap Predefined view to select a predefined view of the map. Tap the button and then select Plan, Top, Front, Back, Left, Right or Iso. Plan view shows the map in two dimensions; the other views are three‑dimensional views. When in Plan view, additional options are available from the tap and hold menu. These options are not available in the other predefined views. The Iso view shows an isometric view of the data where each angle is 60 degrees. Select Iso again to rotate the view by 90 degrees.
Linked files	Tap to link to point files or map data files, or to change which features are visible and selectable in the map. See To add data to the map.
More	Tap and then select the appropriate menu item to change the information that is shown in the map. Select from Settings, Scans, Filter, Pan to point and Pan to here. See Map display options.
Show video	Tap to switch to the video feed from the instrument. This button is available only when connected to an instrument that has Trimble VISION technology using a Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Cirronet radio connection. Video is not available when connected to a Trimble VX spatial station or Trimble S Series total station using a serial cable.
