xPilot 2 (Beta) - questions

Hi,

today I successfully downloaded & installed the latest beta for xPilot (beta 2), and could also connect to the network & set-up my microphone device.

For now, I have two questions:

  • Is it possible to make the settings window of the xPilot main app "drag & drop"? Because if you (accidentally) move the main app window near the corner of your monitor you probably won't the able to reach the "x" (to close the window) anymore...
  • Any possibility to assign a "shortcut" command for the xPilot main app like we used to do in the previous version?

Thanks in advance! 🙂

I’m not sure I understand. Can you post a screenshot of the issue you’re seeing?

The xPilot main interface open and located near the top-left corner of the monitor...

Settings window opened. Unable to close this window since the "close" button is hidden and the window is non-floatable. Besides that you can't reach the main interface... only solution: force xPilot to shut down. 😉

Regarding the "shortcut" command: I found the combination WinKey + number does work, too.

Noticed that on the text message console no callsign of a transmitting station is displayed whereas it is on the main app window (see the attached screenshots).

No real "biggie", just dunno whether intended or not (running beta 4)...
