Where Did the Depth Soundings Go ?

I just installed the program on my computer and downloaded the CM93 charts that I have previously been using with CmapECS. The charts look good and GPS is fine , but there are no depth soindings... ??? I am getting botom type, bouys etc. Ideas?

Go to the tool box and under Vector Charts put a check mark in the show soundings.

Maybe that could/should be default on as its one of the most common queries by newcomers on here.

Worked like a charm! thanks.

Amazing how one checlk mark makes the difference! I agree that having it checked as a default might help those of us who are more computer challenged. Great program. Thank you.
