My GB North arrived today 🙂 In demos in shops I've seen that paths can be made to shop up on the virtual landscape, crossing mountains etc. Does anyone know how to do that, please? The path I've just marked shows up as a blue line on the map view, but it's not visible in the virtual landscape.
Also, my virtual landscape doesn't look quite so impressive as those that I've seen in the shops. It looks great, but somehow in the ones I've seen in the shops the mountains look more pronounced. I wondered whether it might be something to do with a setting that I should alter? At one stage I thought that changing the zoom level in the little box made a difference to the appearance of the virtual landscape, but since then I've concluded that it doesn't. I could be wrong, though: any ideas?
If you go to Tools -> Virtual Landscape Settings and tick the box which says User Data at the top right they should also appear. You can also change the exaggeration and lighting to change to VL effects.
Cheers
Andrew

Thank you v. much - the path's visible now 🙂
Changing the exaggeration produces some interesting effects! I changed it from 1 to 10, and the picture shrivelled up to a little walnut of a thing 🙂
