 By default the map will be set to display a plot, along side of a map. Once a signal is selected and pushed up into the mater signal preview any available GPS data will be visualized in the map, see Figure "Preview Data Window - GPS". If you click on the plot line a marker will be placed in the map which indicates where the car was at that point in time.

If both audio and video measurements exists (like in the example) one can choose to only play the video measurement by clicking the video measurement bar in the graph. This also applies to when there are multiple overlapping videos.

			If there are multiple overlapping videos, on of the videos can be viewed in "picture in picture-mode". To enable this, click the three dots in the bottom right corner of the video and select "Picture in picture" in the sub menu appearing.

			This can of course also be used for a single video as well.
