Dawid Reszel Posted October 30, 2020 at 09:02 AM Posted October 30, 2020 at 09:02 AM Hi, a minor feature request that may aid facility engineers while working on the profiles. Would it be possible to add a dev key command to copy coordines of a point pointed in space to clipboard in ISO 6709 format? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Saw Posted October 30, 2020 at 11:06 AM Posted October 30, 2020 at 11:06 AM Yes, that should be fairly easy to add. In the meantime the GRIB window (F12 by default) will show the cursor coordinates. Jake Developer - vatSys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I'm using VRC to do it and manually mass converting it to ISO format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Saw Posted November 5, 2020 at 03:21 AM Posted November 5, 2020 at 03:21 AM You can now display a lat lon point at the cursor position using the "Add LatLon" keyboard command (defaults to F10). Right click the text label to copy to clipboard in ISO format 1 Jake Developer - vatSys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Nguyen Posted November 5, 2020 at 06:13 PM Posted November 5, 2020 at 06:13 PM What an ingenious way to do this. It actively displays where it is so you can keep track where you are along capturing points. It works well for my situation, granted I already did most of the complex stuff (each crisscrossing airway in Anchorage's airspace). Kinda wish I knew about this and delayed my work..

Jake Saw Posted November 5, 2020 at 11:41 PM Posted November 5, 2020 at 11:41 PM It’s actually a feature of the real system too (except for the copy bit) Jake Developer - vatSys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
