Yes, I was wondering about that as well, and hoping I would find a real-time World greyline map to install as a skin.

The only way I know of being able to do this is to connect to a spotting server and enable "Track" on the spotting window. I think there are skins you can get to modify the image but I haven't gotten that far yet.

Not totally sure what your use is but if you want a very comprehensive map program take a look at Simon Brown's "World Map".

FWIW here is (attached) screenshot of my current configuration. Sun/moon position, moon data, space weather, sunrise/sunset, live sat tracking, range bearing to locator, clocks, grey line, prefixes, rotator control interfacing etc. etc.

Map background of your choice. Fully zoom/pannable.

Issues resolved, I really did not expect that to be part of the spotting menu!

Thanks to all
