Enc Anchoring info n/a

Hi all,

I've been using openCPN for quite some time now, but I ran into a problem I seem to be unable to fix. Yesterday, I had to a hard shutdown of my system, which caused the config file of OpenCPN to be corrupted. Or so I assume: all my settings and charts disappeared.
I did a full rebuild of my chart set and redid al my setring, as I didn't have a backup of the config file yet. Everythong is working beautifully again, except one thing: I'm missing the ENC anchoring info. No details om rocks, no details on bottom type, etc. The option (under 'view') is unchecked amd greyed out. Even if I enable everything in chart display, this info is still lacking. Before yesterday, it was there and I'm using the same chart (oesenc spain).
Any hints on what can be wrong are very welcome; I anchor 90% of the time and are not very keen on hitting rocks..!

Thanks,
Anne

Anne..
Be sure to not use "Base" or "Standard" display category but "All" or "User standard"
Then you can check the "Anchoring info"
For user standard you can select what you want to see. Pls see Options->Charts->Vector Chart Display for a list of selections.
