Version 3.4.4.20895 on Samsung Galaxy S3

Went flying today and tried the new feature of changing the map orientation.
It switched to the different orientation okay but when I went back to "North Up" (close to my destination) it displayed the map outline in the correct sense (north up) but all the map infill text and labels were upside down. This was quite confusing!

I had to cycle through the map "orientation" options a few times to get the map to display properly.

Thanks, are you able to give us the exact steps used to generate this situation? I assume it resolves itself if you pan the map, also?

I started my flight  (and test in simulation mode) with "north up" map orientation. I then selected "track up" for the rest of my flight until I was  I was close to my destination. I then selected "north up" again and that is when I saw the issue.
Recycling the map depictions a few times appeared to clear the error and I couldn't get it to go wrong again.

However, if I exited SD and went back in I could reproduce the issue as described above.
