7.13 Requesting Information About Vector Chart Objects
The ability to cursor-pick an object to find additional information about the object is an important function of the
chart radar. However, an unprocessed cursor pick, which does not discriminate or interpret and merely dumps on the
interface panel all the information available at that point on the display, will normally result in pages of unsorted and
barely intelligible attribute information.
7.13.1 Setting visible vector chart features
The request information about S57 chart objects is given only to objects which are chosen for display by the user.
For how choose chart details to display, see section 7.9.3 Controlling visible chart features (chart display).
7.13.2 Choosing desired object from the list of found objects
To specify desired SENC and object for information request, do the following:
1. Place the cursor on object desired.
2. Push the scrollwheel. Two windows appear: Objects by Cell and Object.
3. Use the Objects by Cell window to choose desired chart cell and desired object from which you need
information. If there are different navigation purpose S57 charts over the area where you are making an
information request, you can choose desired S57 chart cell from the Cell window. A list of S57 chart cells is
displayed in the Cell list box. Choose desired S57 chart cell from the list.
ECDIS mode Chart radar mode
4. Choose desired object from the Objects in display priority order list box. Chosen object on the chart is shown
with mark showing information in the Object window.
