You can create a waypoint file in three different ways:
•Right click on the waypoint label in the data tree and choose the option ‘Create new waypoint file’. Add waypoints to the empty file that will open. These waypoints can come from other open waypoint files or they can be created in the main window. Newly created waypoints will be stored in the first waypoint file open so you will have to move them to the file that you are interested in if it is not this one (read moving waypoints up and down the tree to learn how to do this). To change the name of the new file use the option ‘Save waypoint as’ by right clicking on the name of the new file in the data tree.
•Create the new waypoints in the main window; they will automatically be stored in a new file unless you already have opened another waypoint file in which case the new waypoints will be stored in this file and not in a new one. To change the name of the new file use the option ‘Save waypoint as’ by right clicking on the name of the new file in the data tree.
•If you want to create a new waypoint file with certain waypoint that is already stored in other waypoint files, you can do this very easily. First go to the list of waypoints and select the waypoints you want to include in the new file (select the first one and, holding down the shift key, then click on the last one). Now right click on the waypoints that you have marked and select the option ‘Save selected waypoints as…’ write the name and address of the new file and click on save to create the new file.
You can edit a waypoint file; you can change the order of the waypoints that make up the file. To do this, select the waypoint that you want to move and, while you hold down the ‘Alt’ key, click on the arrow pointing up or on the arrow pointing down to move the selected waypoint nearer to the beginning or the end of the file, respectively.
