Table editor

The table editor allows you to modify any value, except for timestamps, directly in a raw data file. It is recommended to use this editor only in cases where any of the other tools can't be used. You can also use this editor to analyze and export raw data.

Using the table editor

Data in the table editor is sorted per sensor type:

  • Depth;
  • Position;
  • Heading;
  • Speed;
  • GPS information;
  • Tide;
  • Motion;
  • DOP;
  • Sub bottom information;

You can use the buttons (c) and (d) to switch between the different tables.

To alter values in the table editor, just double click a cell in the data grid and type the new value. Press enter, or click another cell with the mouse when you are done.

In addition to modifying values, it is also possible to delete one or more data rows using the toolbar.

When done editing raw data, click the "OK" button to save your changes. To discard changes, click 'Cancel.' When data has been altered, a new modified raw data file is written in the 'Modified' folder in your project root.
