In this section you will learn :
1. How to create a Route.
The Selected Route is your draft. You can easily plot and edit a route on
the chart using the Route tool to simulate your navigation. The Planning
Route is drawn on the chart with series of QuickWaypoints (or Waypoints)
linked with orange dotted lines. When you make a route with the Route Tool,
if you don't click on existing Waypoints, QuickWaypoints are automatically
created. These QuickWaypoints are not added to the Waypoint database
and are automatically deleted when the route is erased.
(Fig.1 : Route using QuickWaypoints)
Each Leg along the Route are listed in a table called the Selected Route
Center.
All routes you have created are listed in the Routes Center.
