Changing the Map Colors
When you use a laptop computer while traveling, it can be difficult to see the map
display on your screen. This can be especially true at night or on a bright sunny day.
Changing your default map colors to high-contrast map colors can make your map
display easier to see.

1. Click the Options button
OR
Click the arrow next to the Options toolbar button to open the menu. Then,
click Options to open the dialog box.
2. Click the Display tab.
3. From the Map Colors drop-down list, select High-Contrast Colors to make
the map display darker for improved in-vehicle visibility, Street Colors to
emphasize streets and highways on the map, or Topo Colors to emphasize
contours, parks and public lands, land cover, and so on.
