• Map Layout From this function you can assign a title and subtitle to the

currently displayed image in DelphMap. You can also set the scale to
be used for printing and set a map rotation for printing, if desired.

• Cursor Value Layer If you are working with a bathymetry layer, you

can get DelphMap to display the depth of the layer at the cursor
position. See ‘Establishing a Cursor Value Layer’ for the technique
to do this.

Recall that the hierarchy of the entities displayed in the Project Files Window is
as follows, from top to bottom level: project name (as user-defined
filename.DMP)

→(image or vector) layer type→(user-defined)layer name of the

layer type

→(user-defined) file name of the layer.

Some of these choices are available from the Project menu (accessible from the
main menu); other choices can only be accessed if you right-click on an entity in
the Project Files Window. When you right-click a Project Files Window entity, the
system displays a small menu of choices appropriate for that entity. These are
shown next in a series of six paired graphics.
