Zoom Levels; Daylight And Night Color Schemes - Mio DigiWalker C310 Software Manual

Note: You may find that 2D mode is more useful in North-up Map mode when
looking for a certain part of the map or an object to select as destination. On the
other hand, 3D mode in Track-up Cockpit mode with Smart Zoom makes navigation
very comfortable. The description of these modes will come later in this manual.
Note: Using the Advanced settings, you can force Cockpit mode to always start in 3D
Track-up view (Page 77). You can still rotate and tilt the maps in either mode, but the
next time you enter this screen, the preset look will reappear.

4.2.2 Zoom levels

MioMap uses high quality vector maps that let you see the map at various zoom
levels, always with optimized content. Street names and other text objects are
always displayed with the same font size, never upside down, and you only see as
many streets and objects as needed to find your way around the map. Zoom in and
out to see how the map changes in either the 2D or 3D view.
Changing the scale of the map is very easy. You can drag and stretch the scale
(Page 28) at the bottom of the Map screen, or use the zoom icons (Page 26) on both
Map and Cockpit screens.
Note: If you need to zoom out briefly to locate your position on the map, use the
Overview mode instead of zooming out and back in. The Overview mode is a 2D
North-up view that can be started by tapping the compass button on the right (Page
28).
Note: MioMap has a special Smart Zoom function for navigation that automatically
rotates, scales and tilts the map in 3D map mode to always give you the optimal view
in your current situation. When approaching a turn, it will zoom in and raise the view
angle to let you easily recognize your maneuver at the next junction. If the next turn
is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to flat in order to let you
see the road in front of you.

4.2.3 Daylight and night color schemes

The different color schemes let you adjust MioMap to the brightness of the
environment. Use the daylight and night color schemes accordingly. Daylight colors
are similar to paper roadmaps, while the night color schemes use dark tints for large
objects to keep the average brightness of the screen low, with carefully selected
colors to still keep you informed about all the necessary information on the screen.
