ii.Tap on the chart you want to see transits to.
•None (Mundane) means you are not choosing to see transits to a natal chart, rather you are choosing to see the current mundane transits. In other words what you will see is aspects between planets in the current mundane chart.
Which specific mundane transits (aspects) shown will be determined by the Dynamic Job Type selected - i.e. lunar (the moon), inner planets, or outer planets ... within the current mundane planets.
•Otherwise if there are favorite charts in the list and you select one of those, you will see that chart's current transits - either i.e. lunar (the moon) transits only, transiting inner planets only, or transiting outer planets only ... depending on what you chose for the Dynamic Job Type.
Whichever chart you choose will be ticked, then that selection will now be shown as the Radix Chart setting in the Transits Listing edit screen, similar to below.

4)Tap anywhere on the screen outside the dialog and the Transits Listing widget will be displayed showing the newly selected Dynamic Job Type (type of transits listing) and Radix chart (receiving the transits), similar to that in the screen below.
