The + google earth file loading code got a lot pickier, requiring + some minor white space changes in the export code. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Make the look-n-feel configurable, providing a choice from + the available options. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Add an 'Age' element to mark how long since a telemetry packet + has been received.

A menu provides a list of + reasonable values, or the value can be set by hand. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Changed how flight data are downloaded. Now there's an initial + dialog asking which flights to download, and after that + finishes, a second dialog comes up asking which flights to delete. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Re-compute time spent in each state for the flight graph; this + figures out the actual boost and landing times instead of + using the conservative values provide by the flight + electronics. This improves the accuracy of the boost + acceleration and main descent rate computations. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Make AltosUI run on Mac OS Lion. The default Java heap space + was dramatically reduced for this release causing much of the + UI to fail randomly. This most often affected the satellite + mapping download and displays. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Change how data are displayed in the 'table' tab of the flight + monitoring window. This eliminates entries duplicated from the + header and adds both current altitude and pad altitude, which + are useful in 'Monitor Idle' mode. + </li><li class="listitem"> + Add Imperial units mode to present data in feet instead of + meters. + </li></ul></div><p> + </p></div></body></html> |
