Default Moving waypoints on map??

I'm playing SH4 V1.5 Gold Edition with U-Boat Missions.
Just vanilla game with no mods.
Is there a way to just move and existing waypoint or add a waypoint to the middle of an already projected course without having to go back and redo the entire track?

Never mind.
I found it. Kept wondering what that damn old style compass was there for.
Been so long since I played this I forgot what a lot of the controls do.

Now If I can figure out what that red pencil means by "combat support units" when you scroll you mouse over it.

the Red Pencil is only for playing the German side.
if you are playing US, just ignore it.

Now can someone please tell me how I can use the watch on any other screen other that just the attack periscope screen.
Would like to use it to track the passage of time on the standard navigation map especially to track night and day on time compression modes.

um, yeah, about that.
the chronometer is available via either C or X.
look at the Keyboard graphic in your SH4 root. there are two jpg/png files that give you the std keyboard.
unfortunately (for you), i use my own, customized keyboard.
in my Stock install, it looks like X is your answer.
READ the documentation, young Kaleun!

My bad.
I was at work playing around at the end of the day and didn't have the keyboard layout.
Have the original that came with the box edition back on 2007.
I feel such shame on something so simple.
Have to remember to look harder.
