But the question is: Do Anchorage Areas show in Standard Mode, as they always should?

Thanks

No, It does not. See screenshots. First one's are Standard.
Last one is Mariner's with Anchor info showing.

Using the anchorage area by Hospital Point, Portsmouth Va as a test, I find that the feature works as "advertised" on Linux.
"A" works with "All" but not with "Standard". The anchorage is however always visible in "Standard".
Is this a Windows 10 thing?

Dear Thomas, I am of course it is a Windows "thing"! What else would it be? If we must characterize OS, they all have certain traits....

I am not so sure this is worth figuring out, but then it is Standard Mode, and that means there are certain expectations about the Anchor elements, they should be shown I guess.

Rick...

I think your results are as expected.
The first 3 shots are in STANDARD model. There are no ACHARE nor ACHBRT features at the location shown. The CBLSUB features are not shown in STANDARD mode.
The last shot, in ALL mode, shows the CBLSUB features.

Try a spot with a known ACHARE, like attached Newport, RI, cm93

Thanks
Dave

When you have already fixed this pink hat! or add a setting to turn off!

Baikal...

If you look at Object Query, you may see that the pink crosses are mostly underwater obstructions with depth less than surrounding depth area. Sometimes least depth is known, sometimes not.
In either case, the obstruction should be shown always, since it may be a significant hazard to navigation.

Thanks

In Windows 10, Ver OpenCpn 4.8.0 it is well shown.
Thanks

Dave, I just learned something. Thanks. Sorry about the confusion. --Tried Newport, and anchorages turned on and off.

Is it possible to add an option in the map settings to disable the pink crosses?
Or how to take into account the shallow water parameters, safe depth, depth, draft of the ship?

This symbol is a part of the new ENC standard. Just get used to it! Personally I can't see anything terribly wrong with it, and I'm looking at it every day.

Have a look at the manual https://opencpn.org/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpnpencpn_user_manual:charts:vec tor_display_tab, scroll down to "Shallow, Safety and Deep depths
Safety Contour", where you will find an example of just how depth is taken into account when displaying the magenta cross.

Thomas, we're changing gradually over to Titles like this
====Shallows ====
in the wiki, because you can get a link direct to the titles (the chain symbol that appears at the end of the title) down in the document, like this.

[Baikal]

All the same the desired setting off isolated dangers
Whoever wanted to do this

Here's a comparison in CPN and MaxSea TimeZero

[nohal]

Bikal...
OpenCPN complies with S57 presentation standard here, while MaxSea does not. Information you receive is the same, isn't it?

We DO understand you personally do not like the isolated danger symbology as defined by this new version of the standard, you have already repeated it several times.

Yes it is, but it's wise.

With a Safety Depth of 2 m, is amost of the pink crosses are away, but not the ones in
depht area. 2 to 5m

With a Safety Depth of 1m is all the pink crosses away and you are on guard on the bridge without the help of the pink friends.
