Map tap for waypoint info

[Angelo]

Hi,

It would be nice to be able to tap on a waypoint on a map and to get a little info box with name, frequency (if available) and a direct to button. A bit similar to the airspace info feature. Now selecting a direct to requires several taps.

Thanks!

It will be soon...

In this box, it would be nice to also have:
1) Track to WPT
2) distance/estimated flying time at present speed
3) ETA UTC at present speed
4) if APT, runway length
5) Fuel comsumption (tricky item? forget it ! )

cheers

Fuel consumption is not tricky
If you create aircraft (logbook) and set it as default...

In case of navaids I will add its frequency.

Hi Petr

After having left you alone so that you could cherish the Xmas moments with your beloved ones, lets get back to business!

First the easy part:
1) could not see Fuel Consumption to nav item. ETE and ETA are ok. (default acft fully configured)
2) 5 seconds is too little time to read all info diplayed, I think. Maybe a "Custom Display Time" configured at Menu/App Settings/Preferences/Screen settings/Highlighting? Something like 5 ,10, 30 seconds or some time interval proportional to message's lenght (too much fancy?) ?
3) when nav item is a RWY (maybe ILS too. did not check), runway length is not shown.

Now the tricky ones:
1) Can a long tap over the information box be implemented to perform a "Direct to" navigation? Any better idea to do so?
2) if a "Custom Display Time" is possible, a "0 seconds - tap to close" option is also possible?

All these where investigated using Simulator. No real flight performed. Yet.

cheers
