Waypoint in OpenCPN

[SV Demeter]

I have uploaded a series of waypoints into opencpn and wondering is there a way to toggle their visibility on and off? They clutter up the charts and I'm wondering if there is a setting that can remove them from view or do I need to do something different when I import?

goto the routemanager, then into the folder waypoints.
There you can turn them on or off as you like

and once there, click the eyeball and see what happens!

Ted,
Have you tried using layers instead of importing. You can either open them as a temporary layer (under the layer's tab of the route ) or you can place the gpx file in the same directory as the opencpn.ini file (file location is at the bottom of the Help > About tab).

That way you can make the whole layer visible or hidden.

I have not tried using the layers feature Sounds very interesting. Will give it a go. I was able to click on the icon buttons for the waypoints so now I can at least see my charts again.
