MACINTOSH

= SYMPTOMS =

When starting Road Atlas, you may see an Untitled map window that appears to be blank or filled solid blue.

= CAUSE =

This may occur because the program has defaulted to an area on the active map that is far into the sea, rather than a portion on land (you may be even so far into the sea that you cannot zoom out and see the continent). Depending on the specific Macintosh you are using, the sea may not appear to be blue (for example, on a Macintosh that displays in black and white only or a PowerBook).

= RESOLUTION =

Use either the Goto command to get to a visible location, or choose Zoom Full from the View menu.
