How to plan manual updates

The manual update editor operates in sessions. You create a session when you activate the Manual Update Planning
dialog box, displayed by choosing Manual Update from the Chart menu followed by Planning from the sub menu.
You can freely delete, modify, copy or create chart objects. You terminate your session by clicking the Accept
Manual Updates as Permanent button. The ECDIS then stores your manual updates permanently. If you need to
leave your manual update session and discard all modifications made during the current session, click X in upper
right corner.
Note: The manual update editor is only available in the North-up or Course-up orientation mode.
New, Copy, Modify, Delete: These buttons are used to collect chart objects into a list shown in the Manual Update
Planning dialog box for further editing during current session of manual update planning. New creates an object
from scratch. Copy creates an object using an existing object. Modify changes an existing object. Delete removes
an existing object.
Edit Properties: You can edit properties of a selected (highlighted) chart object by using this button.
Remove from List: If you made a manual update by mistake, you can remove it if you haven't accepted it yet as
permanent. You can remove it by choosing (highlighting) that chart object in the List then clicking this button.
