Hi all, I'm not very experienced in using Global Mapper but hoping someone can help with an issue I'm trying to resolve.

I'm currently using global map version 15. My needs are very simple. Currently I use the software to create an outline of a lake To perform this I load world map data onto one of my layers then use the "create new area feature tool" .

In the future we hope to add a grouping mechanism to the Control Center. Let me know if I can be of further assistance. Thanks, Mike Global Mapper Support [email protected]
