Generate Light Sector

Hello Everyone,

I have question with Generate Light Sectors in Natical paper chart.

When I run this function in the Chart Automation workflow, the results are different with run by separate tools, including: Generate Light Sector -> Apply Maritime Symbology. Is there any issue when setting parameters?

Please find the attached file and give me some advices.

Thank you

Hue

@NguyenBichHue you are seeing different results because the Chart Automation Tool is configured to use different values in the Sector Line Length and Sector Arc Radius parameters. Following values are used in the Chart Automation Tool:

Sector Line Length: 10cm
Sector Arc Radius: 5cm

If you prefer other values, the python script can be customized. The ChartAutomationFunctions.py script can be found in the Maritime Product Files data: ...Product Files\<version>\Charting\Tools

Thanks,

Paulina
