Every time I try to zoom in, it always zooms in and resets the location to the far top left corner of the screen. I try to zoom in as far as I can, but then the resolution is so big that it's hard to find where I'm looking for by moving around. This happens when I try to draw a box and "Zoom Window In". Never fails. Always goes to the top left corner.Any ideas?Jim

Yup, that's the way it works. Not very well designed.Cal Rasmussen

Jim, I noticed something in the Route Geometery Extractor. If you know the LAt./Long. for the route this will hopefully help (never tried it myself). Select Edit in the toll bar the hit option "Selection", it looks like you can enter the Lat./Long. for "Tile" (for nothing else to call it).Hope it helps.

Something else to try.
When you first load RGE, maximize the MAIN screen. In the smaller screen, zoom region in 1 time, then maximize the smaller screen.
That should help you get a a better screen to continue zooming.
