the guard post locations

go to the “Places” window, which should
be on the left hand side of the screen (if it

down to “Temporary Places”, and then
through the Guard Posts to the individual entries

in the image window. You can open more than one
track at once, and compare routes with each other.
You can change the colour of any
given track, by the following: In the “Places”
window click the plus sign next to the entry you
want to change, then right click the sub file

colour and click “OK”.
We hope you enjoy this additional
