Feature request: zoom declutter

Hello,

just one thing that would be extremely awesome to have - visibility thresholds for various zoom levels for individual objects (mainly waypoints and free text entries). The real system used at LKPR works this way that when you zoom out, you see just enroute points, airways, airspace boundaries...) and as you zoom in, you get more and more details on the display which would just clutter your screen if displayed with wider zoom level (like VFR point names, heliports on hospitals, and even taxiway names, stand numbers, etc...)

 

We have all these objects in our sectorfiles, but we have to use multiple ASRs to set what should be displayed for view of Tower, ground, APP, etc. If we just had one parameter in the sectorfile (or in ASR file) to determine under which zoom level the individual object should disappear, we could tweak it very precisely...

 

Just something to think about before we get a new version of this awesome radar client

Forgot to reply to that, but that would probably be the best for vatsim feature possible. I might code a plugin for that.
