Getting The Navigational Chart With Navigational Data
I can't seem to get the standard navigational chart showing the navigation data on a line across the top and bottom of the screen. What I get is the chart with a small black square in the bottom right showing the lat/long and a distance. Is this because the Pan is "on"?
