This allows the user to see the seafloor detail which the
mark may obscure.

When the
Add Measure
button is clicked and highlighted,
the next two left mouse clicks will add two measure markers
on the main window.
After placing marker #1 the distance between both markers
will be displayed on the line between them.
When placing marker #2 the line will then be anchored in
place.
At this point, both markers can be re-located by clicking and
dragging each marker to a new location.
The purpose of each marker is to provide a measuring tool
between two points on the map as well as providing a cross-
section of the seafloor depths between the two marks in the
profile window.
Click the Add Measure button again to remove the current
markers.
