User data
User data consists of geographical objects (such as points, lines and
surfaces) which are displayed on the chart itself and which enrich it.
It is saved in files which can then be displayed on the chart or erased from
it as you wish. Each file can be thought of as a transparent layer which can be
superimposed on the chart or on other files which are already displayed.
Note: by default the user data which has been entered is saved on the layer called SeaUser, which is automatically created the first time MaxSea is launched. Refer to
the paragraph below entitled Saving user data to find out how to save the SeaUser layer.
Before looking at this chapter the Tool Box should be displayed in a long
configuration by clicking on the key located in the upper right-hand corner of the
boxâs title bar (refer to the chapter Saving user data).
