Chart Symbols
I've downloaded the lastest software and charts. I'm seeing alot of these circles - I think they are related to beacons/lighthouses?

Where can I find information on the symbols used in OpenCPN? I know I can find some of them in Chart 1, seems some are missing from there.

Also - can these circles symbols be turned off?

Re: Chart Symbols
Update - I found that by right clicking the item, I can select Object Query and get the answers I'm looking for. Cool!

Re: Chart Symbols
Look in the OpenCPN Manual wiki. It has a good search.
Go to opencpn.org to find the manual.
