vessel and a selected position, or between 2 points on the chart
panel.

measure the distance. Start the measure function from the
menu
- The measuring icons appear with a line drawn from the vessel
center to the cursor position, and the distance is listed in the
cursor information window.

You can reposition the measuring points by dragging either
icon as long as the measuring function is active
Note:
Ú The bearing is always measured from the grey icon
to the blue icon.
You can also start the measuring function without an active cursor.
