Suggestion - Jack Janos - May 11, 2005 When a route is shown on the displayed chart, the yellow box at each waypoint SHOULD ALSO SHOW THE BEARING & DISTANCE TO THE NEXT WPT. It you just want to see the WPT name, you should be able to uncheck the "Show Selected" in the Routes menu & the bearing & distance info. should dissappear. This is standard proceedure in any charting class. Just showing rhumb lines without this info. is considered not very good chartwork. Jack[/u] BRG and DST to next waypoint in route displayed on chart - GPSNavX - May 11, 2005 Good idea. Although I wonder if it would add too much clutter to the chart. The same info (Bearing and distance to each waypoint) is shown in the Routes window. Bearing & didtance - Jack Janos - May 11, 2005 There wouldn't be any "clutter" if you choose not to have the Route window displayed. There ought to at least be an OPTION to do this. Jack
