The compass on the bottom right shows the current direction for North. When the application is started this is at the top of the screen. To change the direction slide the bar to the left or right below the compass. Sliding to the left will rotate the GIS windows to the West, sliding to the right will rotate to the East. Double-click on the slider to adjust the display so that North is at the top of the screen again.
