There doesnt seem to be a ZOOM function for the Streets mode. Ive looked everywhere on the iFly unit, in the forums and in the Streets manual but cant find an answer. When you tap the screen it brings up a zoom function and a tilt function but when you go back to the map it goes back to a fixed range that isnt adjustable. The manual says the Map Setting Viewpoint adjusts the zoom and view angle but there is no zoom adjustment just angle.

This unit has many diverse features but as far as I can tell no way to adjust the range or zoom of the map in the Street mode. This is very basic and kind of strange. My unit is fully updated.

Hi Ed

Thanks for the reply. I think I figured out most of this in my search for a way to zoom. The overview mode will give you a BIG PIC view of your navigation progress scenario so that is helpful. Im just used to using Garmin products (also Boeing and Airbus MFDs) that have the ability to zoom. It does seem sort of strange that this unit does zoom in a temporary mode but wont let you keep the zoom level youve set. It still seems to me that this is a pretty basic function that should be there but maybe its just because Im used to using it with the G, B & A units. Thanks

Kurt
