Changing the Chart File Description

To aid in identifying and selecting chart files, any Solar Fire chart file can have a description of up to 80 characters. When a new chart file is created a small dialog box will pop up, "Create New File", where you can type in the new file name that you wish to use.  Then click OK.

 

This description is displayed on the “Chart Database” screen. However, note that you cannot enter a description for Solar Fire chart files which are v2 (Standard Edition) format or earlier.
