Add Annotation Mark
The Add Annotation Mark feature allows you to highlight an object (an area,
line or point) on the chart display and add a note to the annotated chart
object.
To annotate a chart object do the following:
1. Click on the Add Annotation Mark button, the screen prompts to
select the chart object to annotate.
2. Click the ENC chart object you want to annotate. If the
object is a point (for example, a buoy or navigation
marker) or an area the object or area is highlighted in a
transparent red background with a red outline. If the object
is a line (e.g. depth contour) the line is displayed in red.
3. With the required object selected click the OK button. The method
of highlighting is dependent on the object selected:
a. If the object is an area the background colour changes to a
small dotted background with a dotted outline.
b. If the object is a point a white box appears around the chart
object with an i symbol next to the object.
c. If the object is a line the red colour changes to a dotted line
annotation mark.
The Chart Update View/Edit window confirms the annotated symbol status.
The object data shown is the same as shown previously in the Create New
Object section.
4. To exit Add Annotation Mark click the Done button. The
white box around the object is removed but the i symbol
remains, and the view returns to the Edit Chart Update
menu.
Add Deletion Mark
The Add Deletion Mark facility operates in the same way as Add
Annotation Mark. The difference being that the deletion mark is
symbolized with a diagonal orange line through the object.
