Land/Air allows you a wide control on the 3D viewing so that you can gain a perfect perspective that will allow you to work comfortably and make you enjoy viewing your excursions in the best possible way.
To aid your orientation when you are moving around the 3 dimensions, Land/Air features a compass that is parallel to the top part of the map and it indicates the direction, as would a normal compass. The edge of this compass (which appears when the view of the map is not perfectly vertical) indicates the cardinal point that the map is pointing to at that time. Therefore, if we see an ‘N’ in this edge, we know we are facing north.
You can move around in the 3D environment using the mouse (the most comfortable method) or by using the buttons on the tool bar. The mouse’s movements are:
• Right button: Holding down the right button and moving the mouse you will be able to draw circles around the same point, producing a dipping and rocking effect. In other words, the effect you get while moving the mouse with the right hand button held down is equivalent to moving your head around to view your surroundings.
• Left button: Holding down the left button and moving the mouse you will be able to move horizontally and vertically. This effect is equivalent to getting hold of the map and moving it while you maintain the direction of your eyes.
• Wheel: If your mouse includes a wheel, you will be able to move forward and backward over the 3D view. If you hold down the wheel and you move the mouse, you will modify your altitude.
The tool bar offers another way to reach these functions.
From ‘Keys & Buttons’ options, you can add buttons to perform any
movement:
