-Each icon set corresponding cardinal point as point of view for the chart. Same as **Chart > [[menuchart#view_horizon|View Horizon]]**.\\
+These icons are shortcuts for **Chart -> [[menuchart#view_horizon|View Horizon]] -> ....**, with the exception for the Zenith icon.\\
-Last icon {{en:documentation:i41.png}} set local Zenith as point of view.
+If you are interested in the objects display on the chart situated in one of the cardinal directions, simply click the appropriate icon to make your choice:
+  * **N** for North,
+  * **S** for South,
+  * **W** for West,
+  * **E** for East,
+  * **Z** for Zenith
+Setting the chart by these methods to one of the cardinal directions, also forces the chart to use the Altitude-Azimuth coordinate system.
