Discription of Icons

[johns...@gmail.com]

After downloading and using the new Avare X app I see there is no discription of some of the icons on the map screen. Can anybody tell me what the first and third icons are and what they do? Thanks.

Which icons ?  You can usually long press on an icon to display a hint.

The first icon is for measuring distances & bearings between any two points on the chart. Enable that icon, then long press at the first point, then long press at the second point. This will give you distance and bearing. 

The third icon is for rubber banding. When flight plan track is shown, enable this icon, then you can long press at any waypoint on the track and move it anywhere you like.
