I'm no navy man and my knowledge of nautical stuff like bearings etc is very limited. I'd also like to be able to have the bearings showing inside the binocular view, but in the meantime the way I try to get over it is in bridge view (F4) turn my view with no binoculars (mouse or arrows) until I'm looking in the approximate direction, then hit the 'Tab' key and you are lined up with the same point of view only now through the binoculars. I can roughly gauge 45 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees etc so can usually end up where my lookout is trying to guide me to look. (Them figures on the glasses would be handy though. )
