The standard way with OLC2 GUI identifying the ship is to lock onto the ship and order the WA to identify it. On success the type is written just below the center of the scope, uzo or observationscope as long as they are are centered on the target or locked. Click on the typing and the book opens automaticly with the right page. U can turn them to whatever direction u like and when u go back to this ship the ship ID still pops up for use.
Unlike in stock sh3 user based identification (N-key or click on the book) in GWX and other supermods works only if u are using the scopes/uzo/observationscope. It has the disadvantage that it is difficult to use the ID book if the target is not clear visible in either of those 3, submerged below scopedepth, rough sea/wheather etc..
The popular use of "
external camera-toggle for the target-open ID book-browse though" it is still possible by "
memorize the shipshape-switch to scope-open book-browse for it" but its of cause more timeconsuming and buggy due to the the limitation of the
human brain.
Weird is that that u see the bookcover but cannot browse through it. I just leftclick anywhere on the cover and it opens with the 1st page or last viewed of the selected nation. Only if u try to open with "Albania" as nation nothing happens cause it doesnt have any Navy.
