Version 1.6 anybody

[steveb25]

Any update on the release of 1.6?

[AirNav Support]

We are testing and fixing a few functions. We will keep you updated.

Thanks guys

Has anybody already grumbled about the range and bearing of the selected flight?

Mine doesn't change while a flight is selected - I need to click on another flight on the map and then click back again on the flight I am interested in to get the latest range and bearing.

It's great to see this feature back after being dropped from 1.4, but it would be better if it was constantly updated.

Is this being fixed in 1.6?

Airnav - did you pick up on my previous message's request/bug report?

While I'm on about it, would it be possible to record in MyLog the minimum distance that a flight got to Home? Without recording all the time, it would be interesting to see how close a flight came.

Anyone agree?

Oh - and another thing - could we please have the ability to right-click on a network flight to see entries in MyLog? I know it could mean giving a warning that it isn't in MyLog, but it would often be useful.

And by the way, what news on 1.6?

Just checked 1.6 that we are testing and the bearing and range were being updated in the lits :)

We have noted down your two other points.

Its still in testing, some users had issues when run after a 2 week period+. So we need to do changes, clean install then wait for a 2 week and period and confirm there is no other issues. This is what is slowling things at the moment

Thanks for the update, Guys!

Has the flight number been restored on the report in 1.6 ? 

[RodBearden]

On the basis that this suggestion is too late for version 1.6, can I please ask AirNav to right-align the numeric fields in the grids, like altitude, groundspeed, heading, range, bearing etc.  It would make them easier to read.

Thanks

Thought I'd bring this thread back to give AirNav the chance to keep us updated on progress!

How's it going, guys?

Thanks for all your interest in V1.6.
After the release of airnavlive.com, our team is currently devoted to finish the ShipTrax project (which is now on beta testing and should be ready in 1 month). After that we will devote all our time to V1.6. (which is partially finished now).

Keep your suggestions coming and there is a great possibility of including them in this new version.

for the wish-list :
add a  possibility  to record the raw ADS-B data received (BDS by BDS, I have a specific interest for the NUCp value as showed in BDS 0.5 which determines the reliablility of the position info provided by the aircraft)
in the mylog file add a sort function to differentiate basic mode S aircraft from ADS-B ones
add a possibility not to display the maximum range circles (by the way I sometimes receive tracks beyond them from low flying aircraft over the ocean : possible signal reflection over water??)

1.  Undocking of windows to allow duel screen usage.

Sorry support, I know you have said its on the list of things to look at, just want to keep it in the foreground of every ones mind ;)

2.  Fix the scrollbar on MyFlights so that it does not always stay in the centre of scrollbar area. 

I know its a minor thing but it bugs the hell out of me.

3.  Fix the issue raised in this post  (long post hence link)

[RodBearden]

I don't know if others find this frustrating, but I would much prefer that when you click a column heading, the list should be sorted in ASCENDING order first, rather than the descending order that it does now.

More suggestions for keyboard shortcuts:

M - go to MyFlights
N - go to Network flights
S - go to Smartview
C - go to ACARS
A - go to Alerts
F - Advanced Filter

Ctrl-F - turn on current Filter
Ctrl-B - show ADS-B flights only
Ctrl-A - show All flights (turn off filter)
Ctrl-S - Sort by current column

By the way, I know that F9, F10 and F11 already do what I propose M, N, and S to do, but F9 doesn't work for me, and using the keyboard gives us the full selection of tabs, and are probably easier to remember.

I'd just like it to stop not responding when something else pushes it to the background! :-)
