If you're on the surface, you can ask your Watch Officer to report Nearest Visual Contact. Left click the the WO icon in bottom right and then the binocular looking icon that pops up.

If youre looking to do it manually, unfortunately theres no stadimeter on the UZO in MaGui F. You have to basically guestimate using the ships mast and the marks on the vertical scale. I think the math is Range = mast/# marks x 405.

If you're using the periscope you can use the stadimeter or the marks, mast, and AOB wheel.

There's some really good info provided by Manos in his readmes

Hope it helps.
