Object Editor
Object editor overview
User data consists of geographical objects such points, lines, areas, that are displayed on the
chart to enrich it. The Object Editor (OE) allows plotting, importing, manipulating and saving
user data.
Data are saved in files that can be loaded or unloaded on request. Each files contains 8
different layers called by default Layer 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and the user can select in which layer he
wants data to be stored.
Each layer may be shown or hidden, locked or unlocked and defined as visible between
editable minimum and maximum scales.
This feature is extremely powerful because it gives the user the tools to build up its own user
data charts in the same way than vector chart databases are built. For instance, a general
layer, visible in small scales, could include synthetic description of objects while a harbor
layer could contain the full description of the objects.
