In the Moving Map you will be able to interact with everything that is shown on the screen.


Ruler

Tap on two places at the same time for 2 seconds to enable the ruler. The ruler will allow you to measure the distance between two locations on the map and the true bearing between them. Ruler.png The ruler is "magnetic", it snaps to the nearest waypoint, and it even snap to your aircraft (but it won't follow your aircraft when it moves).

You can move one of the ends of the ruler by tapping on the symbol with the 4 arrows.

Tapping anywhere else on the map will disable the ruler.

Rotate

Move two fingers around each other to rotate the view of the map. Remember that this function has to be enabled from "Settings" menu.

Zoom in / out

Pinch with two fingers to zoom in or out.

Screen lock / notepad

It is possible to lock the screen by swiping three fingers from right to left over the moving map and use it as a notepad.


Troubleshooting

The map looks yellow and red, not like the original map
This happens when the option "Terrain awareness 2D/3D" is turned on. Air Navigation will show terrain at your current altitude in yellow and terrain above your current altitude in red. This is very useful in flight but can be a bit disturbing while planning your flight on the ground. You can disable it from Map Options.

For more information about what can be done in the Moving Map, please refer to Map Options.
