I have a region of BlueChart Americas V6 unlocked and stored on my iQue. If I select a point within a loaded chart on the iQue and then tap 'information' I get several topics listed including 'Chart' and 'Location'. Selecting 'Location' results in the Lat&Long of the item being displayed and this information can be copied and pasted. If I select the 'Chart' item numerous pages of chart notes are available the first of which is shown in screen01.jpg. These notes are presumably transcribed from the original paper chart. There are many pages of these notes which I would like to view more conveniently. Is there a way to export this information? Copy and paste did not seem to work with the 'Chart' information.

Alternatively, I tried to find these notes using MapSource on my PC, however there doesn't appear to be any equivalent way to show this information within MapSource.

Anyone managed to do this, and if so - how?

Mike

Have you tried click and drag to highlight the information, then clicking the menu and selecting copy? This works for CitySelect POIs. I don't have Bluechart but it looks like the same window.

Yes, I've tried - it doesn't work. In fact
I can't even get the text to highlight when I try to select it. For any type of information other than the chart notes (i.e. location, sounding, contour, light) everything works as expected - you select text, it highlights, choose copy, etc. For chart notes - nada.

I tried a few places on NACS and Canada MG and can't find any instances of the same problem.
