Map blocking 1/2 of screen in BG

Howdy y'all,

  Recently, I've been going into BG's just to see what it's like. I don't really PvP that much, but thought I'd give it a try a few times. My problem is that map blocking 1/2 the screen that

I can't get rid of.  It shows the BG and where everyone is ( on horde side ) and is very helpful .... except that I can't move it or close it. I have Cartographer but the only seting for a

map in there is in the top left corner to 'only show in BG, always show or never show' for the tiny, hard to see map that defaults into the bottom right corner. I can get rid of that one.

I can hit  'M' and the regular map opens and closes. There is no background on this map, so I am unable to find an edge to even start looking for an  "X" . I can right click on the map to

get a list of options, but the word  'options' is not clickable, either before or after the battle starts. I can click some of the other words in the list, like INC, 2 at Farm. etc. I have tried

holding shift, ctrl, and alt with a mouse click, and with 'enter' and 'M'  but nothing happens. ( No, I don't hold all 3 down at the same time. ) Ok, that's not true, I turn off the music or

open that tiny enreadable map in the bottom right corner, but the big map doesn't go away. No one in the BG wants to answer my pleas for help or doesn't have an answer. I took

some screenshots and uploaded to Flickr because I thought they would be too big to

put in here  http://www.flickr.com/photos/44461439@N03/ .  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks  CC

Well first I would try disabling Cartographer and seeing if that's causing issues.  SHIFT+M is how you're normally supposed to be able to open/close it.

Thanks, I'll try disabling Cartographer and see if that does it. Will update afterwards.

nope.  I disabled the battlegrounds plug-in but the map was still there. I also found an  alpha-map battleground plugin that I disabled  and that took care of it. I can still open a map, but the one that was blocking my view is gone.  Yay. Thanks for the suggestions.
