3.1 DISPLAY WITH TDs & L/L Hot Key Ctrl-T

This command puts the waypoints on a spreadsheet with columns and rows. This display has the Loran TDs occupying

the 2nd and 3rd columns and the Latitude and Longitude occupying the 4th and 5th columns. Normally, the information

will extend off the right side of the screen and require horizontal scrolling to see it all. In this display mode, the Range

and Bearing fields are to the extreme right.

The information on the display can be edited by double clicking on the appropriate cell and doing normal editing. All

normal windows type editing can be performed along with cut, copy, and paste. Block selections, however, are not

allowed.

The information in your file can be edited using routine WINDOWS editing. As it is set up, all fields on the screen are

full of either text or space characters. Editing is done in the insert mode, so you have to delete characters or spaces in

order to add new ones. If it seems like the program is not letting you edit something, try highlighting, deleting or

backspacing to remove what's there.

You can adjust the spreadsheet column widths to hide columns you don’t want to display. To do this, place the cursor in

the title row on a vertical column borderline (watch for the cursor to change to a new shape). Then hold down the mouse

key and drag the column border to its new position. You can also reorder the columns by dragging the column label to

another position with the mouse. These techniques are not permanent, so changing the display mode will reset the fields

to their default order and widths. You can, however, capture and use this new column organization by selecting

DISPLAY >SET USER STYLE.

A horizontal scroll bar is available to see the information that is off the screen. Normally, there is not enough room to

display all the fields.

You cannot edit computed information such as Range, and Bearing. If you want to edit the Lat/Lon of a waypoint

entered as Loran, the program will ask you if you want to make this a calibration waypoint and, if so, where you got the

data. See Chapter IV sections 1-3 for more details.

The chain column (label Ch) is intended to let you know the origin of the TDs or Lat/Lon. You may have entered a

mixture of waypoints in several chains as well as L/L and converted the whole file to another chain. A negative chain

number lets you know that the waypoint has been converted and what from. Lat/Lon is assigned chain 0 and loran

chains are 1 through 8. If the chain number is a two-digit number then that waypoint is a calibration waypoint. The first

digit indicates the origin or quality of the Lat/Lon and the second indicates the Loran chain.
