Hello everybody! What important problems are really solved by the View ---> Map Controls option in BaseCamp? Except for zooming map by using computer mouse without scroll wheel? I found this feature useless for me, so I disabled it. But the blue triangle did not disappeared from the screen! :( screenshot 1 screenshot 2 I always north up align all maps in Baseсamp. So this triangle is not needed for me too. I would like to be able to remove it from the screen, along with the View ---> Map Controls option . In order that it does not cover the map objects and does not flash before my eyes. I think there are people on the forum to whom this improvement is important too. ;) Thanks!

Thank you for your feedback.

Unfortunately I can only give you an answer you probably won't like: there are no plans to remove the triangle. It's a vital feature when you start rotating the map (especially in 3D view), and we don't think that adding a feature to remove it would provide enough net benefit to spend development time on it. The list of future improvements/features for BaseCamp is very long, this just won't make the cut.

If it disappeared how would I find it to use it when "I" wanted it. It doesn't bother me. I would like to see the Left pane be collapsed to the left to give me more map space. I would also like the hand to zoom in when I double clicked on an area rather than change back and forth to different tools. I like to pan then double click to zoom in on an area rather than pan change tool zoom in, Pan and zoom in...

But everything is workable for me...

Oh... It's not nice to yell...
