Setting Relative Waypoints
This subsection explains how to set a waypoint so that it is always
displayed the same relative distance from another waypoint.
To set one waypoint as relative to another:
1. As explained previously, create two waypoints, or, decide
which two existing waypoints you want to use. For the sake
of this example, we’ll call the first waypoint WP1 and the
second WP2.
2. On the chart, double-click WP2. The Waypoint Properties
dialog box is displayed (Figure 4-20).
3. Click the Relative checkbox. The Pinged checkbox appears
to the right of the Relative checkbox.
4. Click the Pinged checkbox to “uncheck” it. The Pinged
checkbox disappears and a drop-down menu with a list of
waypoint names appears. Observe that the
Latitude
and Longitude fields also switch to Range and Bearing ,
respectively.
5. Click the drop-down menu, and select WP1 from the list.
