Title: Is there a way to save iGrid Radar screen settings?
Post by: skyboy999 on September 22, 2022, 05:45:41 pm

Radar screen has various parameters: H+/-; V+/-; TFC; MET; RAIN; POI; AIRFIELDS.

It seems I have to set my preferences each time I connect? Is there a way to save?

I’m guessing this is not presently possible (though confirmation would be nice to rule out any error on my part) so could it be considered as a suggested enhancement. Also, would be good to be able to show distances in Nm rather than Km.

Hi Skyboy,

Lee has already reported that he has done distances in Nautical Miles as an 'option' in Beta, so this should feed through in the next Public Release software.

Radar Screen settings and choices 'should' be saved automatically, though I have noticed that they weren't retained following a couple of my recent (Beta Development) Updates. I will bring this to Lee's attention.

Regards

Peter

Thanks for pointers. Cookies might be my fault- will check.
Good news on the Nm option

Hi Lee,

Updates are definitely clearing the 'display options pre-selection' ticks on the Radar Screen. I have just checked my 'spare' after its recent 'background download update' to Beta 20220913 and the selection ticks had all disappeared again.

Peter
