MGRS grid does not always show up initially when map rotated #8

Odd behavior of MGRS grid and home button - my environment: RHEL 6.4, Qt 4.8.5 64-bit

Run Vehicle Commander Qt. It starts in Follow Me mode, rotating the map to track up, and the MGRS grid is not visible. Click the home button. Follow Me mode is disabled, the map goes to a certain extent, the map is rotated to north up, and the MGRS grid appears. Click the home button again. The map goes back to the same extent, and the MGRS grid still appears.

What is the home button supposed to be doing? It turns on the MGRS grid but doesn't turn it off. Maybe there should be a different button that controls the MGRS grid.

The MGRS is turned on by default in the code: https://github.com/Esri/vehicle-commander-qt/blob/master/source/VehicleCommander/MapController.cpp#L1220

But it is sometimes not showing up initially (perhaps because the map in rotated). Hitting home removes the rotation/following (and then the grid shows up).

So how about we split the "Add Grid Button" as a separate issue - and change the title of this issue as "MGRS grid does not always show up initially when map rotated"
