Legend pane
The legend pane is displayed in the upper-left portion of the Map window. It shows the legend
of the map selected in the Layer Manager (explained below). For example, if you select a land
use map, the legend pane shows the legend of land uses.
The land use is subdivided into 3 types: Vacant, Function, Feature. In the legend of the map,
the Vacant states appear at the top of the list, the Function states appear in the middle of the
list and are underlined, and Feature states appear at the bottom of the list. These three
different land use types are explained later in the section Description MBB Land use.
Overview pane
The overview pane is displayed in the lower-left portion of the Land use map window. It
displays the entire modelled region. A wire-frame rectangle outlines the portion of the region
that is currently displayed in the map pane. You can move the wire-framed rectangle by
placing the mouse pointer inside it and clicking and holding the left mouse button. Moving
the rectangle moves the map in the map pane accordingly.

The layer manager pane is displayed in the upper-right portion of the Land use map window.
