    Not sure exactly what you are trying to achieve, but this video might help.

    In the video it shows a plus sign in the simulator window I don't have that and the gentleman explaining the video is able to drag his first waypoint to where the simulator drone icon is I'm not able to do that either

    If it doesn’t have the + symbol in the preview window then it sounds like it may be a bug.

    What drone, device and DL app version are you running ?

    Ok. That is strange. I’ve used Chrome and Firefox on my PC and Chrome, Firefox and Safari on iPad which all work. Jim may need to assist further. Sorry I don’t have any suggestions.

    Are you currently viewing someone else's plan and it is readonly? If so, you have to copy it into your account first.

    No. I have created several simple test missions on both of my Windows computers and the issue is happening on both PCS. Running Windows 10 and using the Chrome browser latest version.

    What you are viewing is the Simulator, which is a way to run a mission preview but watch it happen in real-time, which allows you to pause and resume the mission (to verify that the resuming behavior is what you want).

    What you are looking for is the Simulated Drone, which can be accessed by right clicking or long pressing on the map:
