á Display modes for lighthouses :

If you navigate by day and do not want your chart to be cluttered, you may choose not to display the lighthouses and associated data. For this purpose, select the Light : No option.

The Light: Symbolic and Light : Real Range options enable the display of lighthouses. Depending on the selected option, the sectors will be represented in various forms : with the Light : Real range option, the circular arc radius representing the sector will correspond to the real range of the lighthouses. With the Light : Symbolic option, the sectors are deliberately made smaller so that not to overload the chart (their size is proportionate to the lighthouse range). This is the default mode of representation.
