Selected flags

Augmented Reality flags in the Video app can be selected (highlighted), providing access to more information about the object and additional features.

Augmented RealityFlags

A flag is an onscreen visual overlay element displayed in the Video app when the Augmented Reality features are enabled. A flag represents an object from the Chart application: e.g. AIS target, Waypoint, or other chart object.

When a flag is selected, the corresponding object is also highlighted in the Chart app. Conversely, selecting an object in the Chart app highlights the corresponding flag in the Video app.

Only one flag may be selected at a time.

  1. AIS Flag

Selecting a flag highlights it in red and provides additional information about the object in a context menu. The menu also provides additional features. The range of features available in the context menu depends on the type of object selected:
