Saving the Current View in a Bookmark

After you zoom and pan to position the map exactly as you want it, you can save the current view of the map as a bookmark. A bookmark saves all of the information about the current view of the map under a name you specify. By using the bookmark in the future, you can go directly to this same view of the map without having to zoom and pan again. To save the current view as a bookmark, do the following:

  1. Right-click in the map, and then choose BOOKMARKS > ADD BOOKMARK from the popup menu to display the Add Bookmark dialog box.

  2. Enter a name for this bookmark, and then click OK.

    Note: Be sure to use a unique name for the bookmark. If you use an existing name, both bookmarks will appear in the menu under the same name with no way to tell them apart.
