Favorites section

The Favorites section is similar to the bookmarks folder for a web browser. It contains a list of previously-visited locations that you have decided you may wish to visit again. Favorites are listed in the same order in which they were added, by default, though you can change the order manually (see table below). The Favorites list is saved whenever you save a session.

Access this section by clicking on the Places panel expand bar entitled Favorites or by choosing View > Places > Favorites.

To nominate an entry to the list:

Do any of the following:

• Use the Recent or Received sections of the Places panel. Click the “Recent” and “Received” links to learn more.

• Choose Analysis > Add Place to Favorites or right-click within the Analysis view and choose Add Place to Favorites. The following popup appears.
  
  
  
  The popup shows the selected coordinates. If you would like to give this location a name, you can type it over the coordinates. It’s also fine to keep the coordinates themselves as the name. Press OK.

The following table shows tasks that can be done from within the Favorites section:
