Small issue with Station Map

Post by philpugh »

Hans

If you select Station Map - all is fine and map is displayed and wind force/direction is fine. However if you wish to move to a menu item above the compass, at the top right, then the drop down menu is 'hidden' from the user - i.e. it is displayed but you can't select most items as the compass 'image' seems to be on the top level. Weird effect but not a show stopper!

Cheers

The station map is only controlled though the CUtils.ini file, which gives fairly limited scope for adjustment.
The wiki at https://cumuluswiki.org/a/StationMap gives the details.
I hope this helps

@Phil: indeed, as Andy says there is little control here, the only thing you can do is move the compass to e.g. right under. It probably has to do with the Z-number (the display layer) with the compass being at top, the menu can't be reached. I think... It will have to be changed in setup.

Will look at it, experiment a little and see what I can do.
