You can enter lat/lon directly; enter an angle (e.g. 24 12'N ) and then
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
strike the Enter key. Hiding the map is certainly feasible; I'd have to find room for a button that toggles between ShowMap and HideMap, as use of this function seems to frequent for the Config window. Interest in the map will also increase once SpotCollector starts plotting spots there. In the non-map portion of DXView's window, about half the space is taken up with control labels and associated whitespace; would an "expert view" lacking this nicety be a reasonable alternative? 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message-----

Subject: RE: [dxlab] DXView 1.2.6 regression Dave, I use most of the fields as they are with the exception of region and time. I would like to see the ability to enter Lat/Lon and calculate the heading. I monitor the Maritime Mobile Service net and often boats give their position in Lat/Lon and it would be helpful to be able to enter that and point the beam at them. I like the map the way it is but one possibility might be to put it into a separate window with a button to display it. Then the control portion of the program would occupy less than half of the current screen real estate. 73, Rich - W3ZJ > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave Bernstein [mailto:dhb@...] > Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 1:48 AM > To: dxlab@... > Subject: [dxlab] DXView 1.2.6 regression > > > The title bar UTC clock does not function in this release -- I > disabled it while debugging something, forgot to > restore it, and > failed to notice its condition during pre-release testing.
