OpenCPN, Vector Palette for MAC

Bonjour,
I would like to change the colors of the o-charts charts to get the same look as the SHOM ones. With Windows you upload a file (chartsymbols.xml) to the S57 directory. With the MAC version there is nothing similar.

Who knows a good solution?

Re: OpenCPN, Vector Palette for MAC

Answer to my question
s57data folder is inside the application contents.
SO open the MAC OS Finder
Go to Application folder
Go to OpenCPN.app
Right click, then select "Show package contents"

Click "contents" then "sharedSuppoort" then "s57data"
save chartsymbols.xml file in a safe place
Replace this file by th one with SHOM look and feel
Restart OpenCPN

To find the xml file for SHOM goto

It is the same on macOS, you can replace the chartsymbols.xml file exactly as on any other platform. It is in /Applications/OpenCPN.app/Contents/SharedSupport/s57data

Yes, you are right, but the standard MacOS iFnder tool is not able to open OpenCPN.app as a folder, you must right click and choose "Show package contents" to display the sub directories

Yhank you very much.
