When the left map window is activated, a bar displays on the top of the left map (see
graphic below). This bar displays two drop-down lists: one for swapping data and one for
changing the map from 2-D to 3-D and vice versa. You can also use the
to show roads on raster data and use zoom tools that work specifically with the left map
window. All of the compatible data collections that you saved to your hard disk drive are
available from the data drop-down list.
Note For more information about saving data to your hard disk drive, see
