Excellent, thanks for the response! I had to uncheck all those optional obstacles because the routing wasn't properly accounting for the nav rules. Not to write it wasn't being avoided when checked.
Since you asked, yes, that is what I expect. I don't mind a learning curve, which is why I've been all about qtVlm for the past 3 months. But in our high tech age I expect to have handheld chart software that while underway from the helm station can render full routing solutions to make nav safe and effective.
Thanks for letting me know I missed something with gribs that contain currents. I'll look out for that. I've had to use forced currents.
I LOVE using the pathway with safety check envelope. Such a nice feature that you've offered there.
