Wish list ?

[pjp]

Are you sure ? If will be this info in box, it's only one short click. In your way - one long click, select something from menu and see some unusuall long list...
How can je this way more rasy and comfortable ?

Why you still show in info box coordinates of objects ? Please, put into preferences an switch for this, equipment with GPS possibility, I believe, don't need this info ...
And, maybe, something for future, exist XCSoar project (http://www.xcsoar.org), I know, functionality of this sw little bit different, but this sw can be connect to some flight simulators (Condor & X-Plane). Is possible somehow to do this with your sw ? I thing, this can be good idea how learn to use your sw and avoid an "suprise" in the flight.
Of course - exist an free simulator FlightGear (http://www.flightgear.org), but I don't know if is possible to connect an external sw somehow like as Condor & X-Plane.

And I forgot - please, add into Nav item list (accessed from info box) somehow pdf files (if exist) for airfields.

- Lat, Lon I will think about it
- Xplane is possible to connect, look here http://funair.cz/domains/funair.cz/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5524
- FSX connection will be in one week
- PDF button in info box, good idea I will implemnt it...

Something about METAR:
- if I check situation from Brandýs nad Labem, I see Mošnov etc but not Vodochody (situation at 6 CEST/4 UTC, last METAR from LKVO 1400Z previous day).
- maybe will be good put in main menu shortest way to read METAR from favourite airports.
- why don't use automatical in some period last downloaded datas ? I know, If Internet off-line there are an question. But I think, will be better an settings in preferencies and maybe an short message for info.
And, please, do something with open pdf, still don't work option "always" in open sw dialogue ...

Something more - is possible in screen "Terrain map" add section (upper area of display ?) "cross section" and show there not only terrain, but airspaces too ? Can be activated by settings somehow ...
And - is possible define something as GPS source (like xcsoar) ? More devices, activated as user need ? I thing, this will be good as preparation for gliders ability, because equipment called "logger".

I have checked METARs now, and LKVO was OK. I am getting data from this site. Try this link:
http://aviationweather.gov/adds/dataserver_current/httpparam?dataSource=metars&requestType=retrieve&format=xml&stationString=LKVO&hoursBeforeNow=2&mostRecentForEachStation=constraint
If there is no data, FIF has no data

- Shortest way to read favourite METARs - Long tap at the map, select METARS around.
- Automatic METAR download, maybe, with displaying at the map (taping an airport)
- something with open pdf, still don't work option "always" in open sw dialogue - I do not understand

- Terrain map displays airspaces
- GPS source - Preferences / Sensor settings

METAR not downloaded if it's invalid (old), maybe will be better put there an message, in this case it's look as mistake of sw ...
About this way, how shown METAR I now, but it's a lot tapping ...

Open pdf - if is selected an pdf to open, android ask which apk use for open, at the bottom of this dialogue are two buttons - once time and always (OK in CZ - "vždy" a "pouze jednou"), in your sw, if I press always (!vždy"), next time I must select an apk to open again and again ...
Terrain maps shows airspaces, I now, but not in altitude section, and colours about distance between aircraft and something are shown only on terrain, not on airspaces.

About a new possibility in setting for GPS I know, but for example are possible in some flight sim sw share "GPS" by network, not only by bluetooth. And if you really wants integrate gliders in your sw, unfortunately in this branch of air sports are used IGC approved Flight recorder (http://www.fai.org/gnss-recording-devices/igc-approved-flight-recorders) and this can be connected not only by BT, but by an cable too ...

Max. METAR's age for downloading is set to 2 hour...
I am planning to add METAR to popup info dialog box (after tapping the APT).

PDF opening - this is Android business. I just ask Android to Open some pdf. I have set Adobe reader ones and I have no asking again.

I do not understand. What is altitude section?
Terrain maps shows airspaces, I now, but not in altitude section, and colours about distance between aircraft and something are shown only on terrain, not on airspaces.

About connection: I am plannig to connect FIF to FSX.

If is pdf Andoid problem, why this problem are some on S3 (4.3) and on Asus ME173X (4.2) ? Sorry, I'm afraid, that this is your issue, you (your sw) simply do something wrong or unusual.

It's nice, that you show airspaces in fly level and less, but somebody sometimes fly not only in airspace G, but little bit higher and not all airspaces are define from GND, for example all (M)TMA, LKTRA62, KTRA58, LKTRA52, etc and not all started at 300m AGL and it's, by me, good know and see somehow simplify situation not only on fly level but above, if I (somebody other) need fly through this area. OK, this cross section can be in other screen, but "terrain map" looks logic ...
Sorry, I don't have any example, but if you download XCSoar and switch on this possibility, you will see.
