Page display map

The page display map gives you an overall view of the current page of the document you are working on in PipeDream. Each character in the document is represented by a single dot in the map, enabling you to see the layout of the whole page and, if necessary, to adjust the layout to improve the appearance.

At any time the lines on the map corresponding to those displayed on the PipeDream screen are indicated by a vertical bar at the right-hand side of the map. The tiny vertical line on the right side of the map represent the screen currently positioned in the document.
