The information in this article applies to:
 
 - Microsoft Automap Road Atlas for the Macintosh, versions 2.01,
   2.02, and 2.04
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SYMPTOMS
========
 
When starting Road Atlas, you may see an Untitled map window that
appears to be blank or filled solid blue.
 
CAUSE
=====
 
This may occur because the program has defaulted to an area on the active
map that is far into the sea, rather than a portion on land (you may be
even so far into the sea that you cannot zoom out and see the continent).
Depending on the specific Macintosh you are using, the sea may not appear
to be blue (for example, on a Macintosh that displays in black and white
only or a PowerBook).
 
RESOLUTION
==========
 
Use either the Goto command to get to a visible location, or choose
Zoom Full from the View menu.
