+====== How to add another map as a layer? ======
+\\
+Instead of simply selecting a new map as explained above, you can also add a new map over the current one (so both maps are displayed together):
+  * In the list of your maps, long-press the map to add {{:icon_01.png?nolink}} or tap its menu icon {{:icon_02.png?nolink}};
+  * Select ''"**Add as layer"**'' {{:icon_03.png?nolink}};
+  * The new map (top map) is displayed over the current one (bottom map), and the map opacity tool is automatically displayed;
+  * If you want, you can adjust the new map opacity {{:icon_04.png?nolink}} or blending mode {{:icon_05.png?nolink}};
+  * When you've finished, tap on the ''"**Close"**'' {{:icon_06.png?nolink}} icon.
