Pan The drop-down button provides the function of continuously panning the map content in the current map window. The button consists of two parts: the main button that directly executes the function when clicked, and the drop-down arrow that reveals additional panning options when selected.
Pan
Click the Pan button or select the Pan option from the drop-down menu. The map's operation status will switch to panning mode, with the cursor changing to 
.
Alternate activation methods include pressing the A key or holding the middle mouse button to enter panning mode.
- Hold left-click and drag to pan the map in any direction. Releasing the button stops panning and triggers a map refresh.
- Map content may appear blank during dragging as refresh only occurs after releasing the mouse button.
- For continuous refresh during panning, use the Real-time Pan function.
Real-time Pan
Select Real-time Pan from the Pan drop-down menu. The cursor changes to 
indicating real-time pan mode.
- Dragging with left-click held now continuously refreshes the map during movement, enabling smooth navigation.
Global Pan
Global Pan enables seamless navigation across hemispheres for world maps, providing spherical-like browsing on planar projections. This feature removes the -180° to +180° longitude constraint, allowing continuous horizontal scrolling.
Essential for scenarios requiring cross-hemisphere operations like global route mapping or trans-hemispheric measurements. Activate through Pan → Global Pan in the Map tab's Browse group.
