Is it possible to obtain solutions using the whiz wheel alone (as was possible in OLC)? If so, can anyone direct me to a tutorial somewhere?

Also, in spite of the documentation in the RAR file, I don't see anything with a simple introduction to all the buttons and keyboard shortcuts for the MaGUI interface. (For example, how do you change zoom in attack periscope mode?...This was eliminated in OLC)
The zoom is changed with the Tab key to go from 6x-15x. There's a video that shows in detail how to plot an attack from first sighting to launching your torpedos that is very well done. I'm still quite the novice with manual targetting despite the great gui and its tools. There are a lot of people out there who are pro's with it, one thing that the vets have taught me is that you can use (not sure if the same is true of the classic OLC) but with MaGui you can use its ring as a shortcut to finding out things like target speed or other variable without having to calculate them once you have a basic plot of the angle(s).
