Title: Panning chart-to-chart...
#1
I tried to love iNavX today while traveling along the ICW in southern Florida. While my wife was piloting I'd look ahead to see what was coming up, etc. It's loads of fun.

But here's what I don't understand how to do. I find it the most frustrating thing about iNavX and it strikes me that perhaps I don't know how to use it. So much of the ICW charts are thin strips. You come to the end and then want to go to the next strip. How exactly do you do this in iNavX. What I found myself doing was pressing the (-) to go to a less detailed chart. Then pan that to where I think the border was...then (+) to get a more detailed chart. There are some issues:

- It's easy to "miss" and then have to start over. It tends to want to re-position the chart when it opens a new chart and makes it even more frustrating.

- It's not obvious which chart should be selected next. I don't understand why it can't just select the next most detailed chart. Why do I need that list of charts? I said "zoom in" just zoom in!


So what am I missing. How do you pan from one chart edge to the next? Surely this is a very, very common thing.
