Convert .csv to .yml Setting Defaults

The program includes tools to set or modify the defaults. To set the defaults, start the program and click on the Show / Set / Save Defaults button.

Enter or select the values for the defaults for each piece of information listed.

If you want to reorder the waypoint data elements or specify columns to ignore, click on the Reorder Waypoint Data button.

This will bring up a list of the waypoint data elements. You can select an element and use the Move Up or Move Down buttons to achieve the order that matches your data. Any data elements that you do not plan to include in your data should be moved to the bottom and the columns for these data elements do not need to be included in your .csv file.

If your data includes columns that are not required by the .yml file format, you can specify that these columns should be ignored or not used. To designate that a column should be ignored and not used click on the Insert Unused Column button and then move the "Unused" column marker to the correct position to match you data. For example, if your data has a date in the first column, insert an Unused column marker and move it to the top of the list. If you no longer want to use the Unused column marker, you can remove it by selecting it and clicking on the Remove Unused Column button.

When you are finished reordering the data elements, click on the Update Waypoint Column Order button. If you decide you do not want to reorder the columns, click on the Close without Updating button.

At this point, the default values are enabled, but not saved. If you execute the conversion, the defaults will be used as assigned. However, tif you want to save these defaults for future executions of the program, click on the Save Defaults to File button. If you only want to use the defaults this one time, click on the Close without Saving to File button.
