When calibrating the map for the screen coordinates, be careful not to reverse the location of the indicated points.

Longitudes: always growing from west to east (from left to right)
Not obeying this rule will cause an error message after marking the second point.

Other way to configure map images with generic points is through two
Waypoints. In the example, the map image was inserted anywhere on the
screen. In the map image there are two points #1 and #2 that correspond
to Waypoints Wpt1 and Wpt2 marked in the GPS. Before configuring, the
program doesn't know that Waypoints Wpt1 and Wpt2 corresponds to the
points #1 and #2 in the map image.
To start the calibration press the button
The configuration window will open, asking for the coordinate in that point. In the list

After inserting the second point, the program will reconfigure the screen and
it will erase the perpendicular straight line close to the pointer of the mouse,

size of the map on the screen after the configuration. Note that Waypoints
Wpt1 and Wpt2 coincide with the points #1 and #2 marked in the map.
