shown based on their internal attributes. There is more information
about the filter mechanism in the documentation for
the Point Data Plot Control.
Click off the Declutter checkbox to see all locations.
The display otherwise shows only selected locations that do
not overlap. As you zoom or pan in the display different locations
will be shown. When decluttering is turned on you can change the density level
of the locations. The small "lock" button allows you to
fix the currently displayed/decluttered locations. Using the lock button
allows you to zoom or pan without changing what locations are displayed.
The display of the locations can be done through a fixed specification of a symbol and/or and identifier as well as by using one of the station models available.
Use the options in the Identifier panel to control
what station information is displayed. Use the Visible
checkbox to toggle the visibility of the identifier in the
plot.
Use the options in the Symbol panel to control
what marker symbol is displayed. Clicking an item will
immediately change the display. Use the Visible
checkbox to toggle the visibility of the symbol in the
plot.
When you select the Layout Model radio button
the station model facility is used to display the location.
You can edit and/or create new station models.
The predefined "Location" station model is a good one to
use for display and as a basis to create your own.
You can choose to display the locations at their altitude (if there is one) or you can override this and specifically define the vertical position.
