In one of our previous guides, we showed you a button with a paintbrush icon near the upper right corner of your map. This button allows you to change your map style and/or add layers to your map.


How to Change Your Map Style

Steps to take:

1) Make sure your screen shows the map page in ShipAtlas.

2) Click on the "Paintbrush" icon on the upper right corner of your screen.

The "Styles and Layers" menu will appear on your screen.

3) Choose the map style you prefer by clicking on it.

  • You can choose between a dark theme, a light theme, and a satellite map.

  • You can also choose between a standard map projection and a 3D globe projection.

You will see the ShipAtlas map changing accordingly behind the "Styles and Layers" menu.

4) Close the menu by clicking on the "X" in the left corner of the menu or by clicking on the map behind it, and enjoy the view!
