Anyone manage to display all ten cities of the Decapolis on the atlas?

I was preparing a sermon on Mark 5 and thought it would be useful to see how far the gospel was preached in the Decapolis by the man formally-known as Legion.  Alas, Logos atlas cannot do this for me.  This is disappointing because i wanted to measure the distance from the most Northern city of the Decapolis, Damascus, to its most Southern city, Philadephia.  Am I doing something wrong?  Can anyone else call up all ten cities of the Decapolis on the atlas or measure the distance between Damascus and Philadelphia?

    Update: I found that I can do this through the "Biblical Places Maps" which overlays the atlas with graphics.  A bit frustrating that I can't get there directly through the atlas though.

    Hold down the control key while left-clicking and dragging the mouse from Damascus to Philadelphia in the Atlas tool and it will measure the distance. It looked like it was roughly 110 miles to me.
