It is also possible to display the WMS layer "above" the data layer, which will hide the data layer completely. Use the up/down arrows to fix the ordering.

    40 You can adjust the positioning of the imagery by clicking [[Image:Adjust WMS-Layer.png]] button on the left. In this mode you can drag and drop the WMS layer. Press the button again to lock it in place. This can be useful if the imagery appears to be offset from reality, but note that your GPS unit isn't perfect.
