Cockpit

The cockpit displays the current position of the observer in 3D space, and the point at which the observer is looking. The cockpit is automatically updated during navigation.

You can change the coordinates of both the observer and looking target point to achieve precise control over the positioning and orientation of the observer.

Further, you can use the Movement speed track bar to change the navigation speed. The speed is relative to the extent of the terrain surface.

Note: After you have changed a value in any of the boxes of the cockpit, you need to click on the main 3D window in order to be able to use the navigation controls
