Is the "Refresh ATIS" button also supposed to refresh the text ATIS?

I tried to change something in the ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE/OTHER area and it wouldn't change in the text version of the ATIS unless I selected a new ATIS identifier.

Seems like that would be an intentional design choice, e.g. it's a feature and not a bug.

 

It's probably helping to prevent the scenario where pilots grab a published ATIS before you make changes to it. If you're modifying the info that's published, you probably ought to rev the letter - otherwise one pilot's "information Bravo" might not be equivalent to another's.

The purpose of the "Refresh ATIS" button is to immediately push text/voice ATIS changes to other clients on the network; hence, it should also update the textual ATIS. I'll have this fixed in the next release.
