Saving User Data

Once you have saved marks or a track you may wish to keep them in a file to which you give a particular name, and which may then be opened later.

Chose Close from the File menu.

Note that a file called SeaUser exists in this location (but only if you have already captured personal data such as marks and tracks).

Select SeaUser from the list of files and click on the Close button.

The file save dialog box which is displayed allows you to save onto disk user data which may be loaded at a later stage and displayed on the chart.

After the save, a new user data file (or layer) is automatically created.

Caution! Double-clicking on the Finger tool tes00033.gif erases the data from the user data file. The software does not prompt you to save the data, and they will therefore be lost.
