Zoom
|
Tap Alternatively, place two fingers on the screen and stretch out to zoom in on the center of the map 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 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 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 When in Orbit mode you can tap individual items in the map to select them, and these remain selected when you orbit the map. In most cases the orbit function is constrained so that the Z axis remains upward. However, when the job Coordinate order is set to XYZ (CAD), there is no constraint and you can orbit data freely. To change the coordinate order, see Units. |
Predefined view
|
Tap Predefined view Available three dimensional views are Top, Front, Back, Left, Right or Iso. 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. To return to Plan view, tap |
