3	DIST/BRG/Rev BRG values	Calculated parameters for the current marker: - DIST — distance - BRG — bearing - Rev BRG — reverse bearing
4	Bearing line	Graphical line from the vessel to the marker for visualizing the direction
5	Set	Adds a marker to the list and to the chart. The marker coordinates correspond to the center of the chart window
6	Marker symbol in table	Marker designation in the table portion of the markers window
