Feature request

[Eivind Fosse 818131]

I would like to suggest that various parts of the ESE and SCT file can be displayed at various zoom levels.

 

A few examples: When you’re controlling ACC (CTR) you don't need to display Airport GEO, CTRs, Vectoring Ts and taxiway freetext (among others). Hence at the general CTR zoom level and over watch the airport GEO and various freetext is not needed and may clutter the display. However, you may want to zoom in giving an aircraft a taxi clearance and then it would be nice if the GEO and freetext shows up automatically at a given zoom. At the same time some freetext might be unnecessary when viewing the TMA and CTR, while helpful at the CTR zoom level.

 

This feature would be highly appreciated (by me at least).

Hi Eivind,

 

a general workaround would be the use of different ASRs and switching them either with F7 (Shift+F7 to go backwards) or with a click on the ASR name in the menu bar and choosing one in the menu (more than one ASR have to be opened).

I use different ASRs for GND (GEO with taxiway names, gates and stands), TWR (the controlzone with PMPs and GEO but without taxiway names, gates and stands --> no clutter), APP (the APP sector with all necessary fixes, VORs and NDBs, maybe SIDs and/or STARs but without GEO and text on the ground) and CTR (the whole CTR sector with all necessary fixes etc., similar to the APP ASR). If I am online as APP and there is no TWR or GND, I simply open the APP, TWR and GND ASR and whenever I need, I switch between them. Easy and comfortable, I think

 

Regards,

Jannis

Hi Jannis,

 

I did not know that I'll try it out.

 

Still request the feature though
