Is there a way not to have the Vessel in the middle of the screen without disconnecting the GPS? I can use "open route" but if I attempt to change the scale etc MacEnc always scrolls to the vessel position, then to make matters worst "open route" fails after using the function a few times.

I must add that after using MacENC for the last four days aboard my Newport 30 I think it's a great piece of software, particularly using my iphone as a "remote" screen. If only there was a rugged version of a MacBook available.

Disable "Position Centered" on the "View" menu then if you wish to have the chart scroll to the current GPS position select the [^] button on the MacENC toolbar..

You might be better off selecting "Routes" from the "Window" menu if you already have the "Routes" window open.
