Hot tracking

Hot tracking allows a user to display a satellite's position in the Map view with reference to the mouse position on the Gantt view.

To use hot tracking (see Diagram 1):

1. Create a scenario over an area of interest choosing satellite and sensor combinations to create numerous potential acquisitions.
2. Create a separate tab group for the Gantt view (See also: Create tab groups).
3. On the Gantt view slowly mouse over a scenario swath task and note the satellite is being "tracked" on the Map view.
