Mileage Chart direction?

I'm struggling with the Mileage chart on the website. Is it possible to toggle the Mileage Chart for an eastbound ride - starting in Clinton and ending in St. Charles. Probably something obvious, but I can't figure it out.

If you click on the starting point it will adjust the mileage from there to each location.

Tried that. Only highlights the Clinton row, but doesn't flip the chart. Machens is at the top and Clinton at the bottom of the chart and chart only work in a "top down" direction for distance calculations....not "bottom up". There must be a way to plan a Clinton to Machens ride...ie: Clinton at the top and Machens at the bottom.

I can do the math and calculate distances, but seems like the chart should work in both directions.

The Mileage chart used to allow one to switch between East and West origins. Maybe that feature cannot work with the Rock Island spur complicating the layout? I am sure Ray will answer the question once he has his coffee this morning (or returns from a ride). :)

The Towns and Services tab does this for you once you pick the town and direction, so that is the tab that I like to use.

Yes. Thanks! The Towns and Services tab will do it. I hadn't tried that tab. I could swear the I used to be able to toggle the Mileage Chart from East to West....which was very handy.
Thanks for the tips!

you have to hit the refresh button after you flip it.
