Have I missed something, but what is the time scale of the release?

After hundreds of programming hours V3.0 final compilation is being sent today to our beta testing team.

So, assuming it passes closed beta testing, it can't be long until it goes public.

Did I read somewhere that the + and - values for climb and descent had been replaced by corresponding up and down arrows?  It's not evident in Tarbat's live displays.

We have changed this one again back to +/- has we were having too many problems with some Windows font types.

why bother trying to add unecessary features, a +/- is fine, in any case you can colour code ascending/descending

[Deadcalm]

You know, for what it's worth, that's a sad loss for the sake of a font.

I can't really see the need to change fonts, other than size.  I seem to remember in NATS there was some discussion about this for our in-house radar replay software - we decided on a sans-serifed font (Verdana, I believe).

Is it really necessary to change fonts?  I would have thought the benefit of the arrows far outweighed a gimmicky font change.

Just my honest opinion.

I for one prefer +/- to arrows - much easier to see than the arrows, especially at smaller sizes, and I like the ability to choose fonts - I'm a Verdana man myself, but in previous discussions on the forum, there is a variety of opinions out there on fonts.

You can't please some people :-)

Have I heard this somewhere before?
