CARIS HPD : Command Reference : B : Burn Selection to Raster Layers
 

Burn Selection to Raster Layers

* CARIS HPD Paper Chart Editor

This command is only available if the Raster Chart Module is enabled.

 

Menu

Raster > Burn Selection to Raster Layers

Add features to raster layers.

Features can be digitized to a panel and then burned into a raster layer. For example, a marine-culture point feature is burned into a raster layer.

Features are added by matching a feature’s colour to the raster layer associated with that colour.

If a feature uses colours that do not match colours of any of the raster layers, a message is displayed informing you that the feature has not been burned because colours do not match.

If the raster layer is resized, close the chart then reopen it before burning features.
