Changing the Map View in Garmin BaseCamp

Garmin BaseCamp™ software provides the option to view the map in 2D view, 3D view, or both views.

The overview map provides a broader, less detailed view.  You can show or hide the overview map, or move it anywhere on the main map view.

NOTE: 2D Map view is the only view that provides a map scale
