    Solix - tide widget?

    Does anyone know if HB removed the tide widget from the Solix? I can’t find it and used that all the time on my Onix units. Really hope it hasn’t been removed.

    The Navionics tide stations are displayed--white circle with T. Put the map curser on one and push the check mark button to get the water level graph. Looking at one on my SOLIX as I type this.

    The ONIX and SOLIX have the same menus and same software version numbers.
    Current for both is 3.110.

    Thanks Wayne - Onix Ver 3.X has the tide chart as an icon right on the bottom of the home screen (along with Nav data, files etc). Automatically finds the nearest tide station - it display in graph form and stays updated as you travel. Much faster than finding individual stations on the map, clicking, viewing numerical data etc. My home river is tidal so this is a big deal to me but I realize many won’t use this feature. If you’re not seeing the icon either that is really disappointing.

    Found it - when I deselected Lakemaster and selected my Navionics card it came up. Probably due to not having any tidal water maps on my Lakemaster card since I’m using chart select. Wayne your post got me thinking that might be the issue - thanks!

    Yes, I have the Tides, and Currents icons on the home view.
    If I remove the Navionics card and choose Humminbird Basemap, the Tides, and Current icons disappear.
    They come back when I put the card back in.
