Plate/Map fast switching

[jwilbur]

Is there a way to quickly switch between an approach plate display and the normal map display? I'm thinking I'd like to choose a plate and then be able with one touch swap between the map and the plate back and forth. Right now if I switch from the plate to the map I then have to hit info, plate, choose the approach, reset the zoom level, etc. I want to just go back and forth.

If not I'd like to suggest this feature for a future release.

Thanks,
-Joe Wilbur

A look at the pilot guide suggests (I could be misinterpreting) that you might be able to do this using the zoom level options.

For instance, I have mine set to automatically go to Track Up at a certain zoom level. You might be able to change the layers doing the same.

Is this what you mean?

Returning to the Map View
To close the chart and return to the map, you can either:
• Press MAP MENU > CLOSE, and then EXIT.
• Press (click) and hold the joystick knob for a second.

Returning to the Last Viewed Chart
To quickly return to the last chart that was viewed:
• With the normal map page displayed, press (click) and hold the joystick knob for 1/2 second.
o When you are within 300 feet AGL of at an airport with an available diagram, that airport diagram is displayed instead of the most recently viewed chart.
