CHANGELOG

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

TODO

1.9.2

Added

  • Pilot Rings toggle button
  • Setting for show/hide of icon labels
  • Highlight the waypoint being navigated to
  • Custom numpad button sizing

Changed

  • Readouts don’t take up so much space

Fixed

  • Save numpad position
  • Fixed bug with rendering rings if blank ring was given

1.9.1

Fix

  • Waypoints layer was sometimes not assigned and caused error
  • Drawing a northing line across zones would render incorrectly

1.9.0

Added

  • Rulers show labels for all locked segments.
  • Rulers show circles at vertices in edit mode.
  • Color picker for waypoints.
  • Custom colors for pilot rings.
  • Multi Waypoint tracking.
  • Custom default ruler color.
  • Custom default waypoint color.
  • Button for getting magnetic variation is now active, will use GPS or center of screen as fallback.
  • Button for hiding/showing layers panel
  • Numpad for easier entering of numbers
    • Applied to Waypoint Editor, Wind Lines, Polygon Tool, Lines Tool, Time Distance Speed Calculator
  • Heading Hold Line option added to Flight Winds.
  • Default ring sizes.

Changed

  • Added additional decimal point to “to/from/heading/bearing” values for additional precision.
  • Renamed “Ruler” to “Plotter”.
  • Trying some different default styling with waypoints. They are now sized to 50m. So zoomed out they will be small(but still clickable). With the added default rings hopefully this can allow for a more precise bearing line to a target.

Fix

  • Pilot rings render correctly.
  • Readouts update when waypoint is moved.
  • Snapped lines draw across point more accurately.
  • Fixed bug with rendering rings if blank ring was given.
  • Waypoints created by 4×4 check for adjacent zones correctly.

1.8.1

Fix

  • Update position of both new and edit waypoint dialogs when either is moved
  • Fix vertical distance calculations
  • Changed some font sizes for labels on windlines and waypoints
  • Ruler was not using magnetic deviation
  • Rulers disappeared if another map tool is selected
  • Magnetic deviation didn’t allow negative numbers

1.8.0

Added

  • New Rulers Dialog added.
  • Multiple Rulers can be added.
  • Rulers can have multiple segments.
  • Ruler ends will snap to closeby waypoints.
  • Rulers save to dedicated ruler layer
  • Added text under toolbar icons.

Fix

  • Flight winds show correctly
