The G1000 highlights the active NAV and COM radios in cyan.
In the NAV case, this is the radio being used by the CDI.
In the COM case, this is the COM radio selected on the audio panel.
Previously select XPDR->CODE->7 and then another number caused very odd
transponder codes. Turns out this was due to extra whitespace in the
label causing various string concatenations and evaluations to fail.
Implement the Nearest Airports PFD softkey, displaying a scrollable
list of the closest 25 airports within 200nm.
Also fix a couple of minor bugs and add self-checking to the
GroupElement
- Make Range knob behaviour consistent between PFD inset and MFD maps
- Add rotation animations for the HDG and CRS knobs
- Change the CRS knob behaviour:
- BARO on outer knob (consistent with FMS knob)
- CRS on inner knob
- Shift-click on inner knob to center (consistent with HDG knob)
- Pre-load nearest airports to remove significant freeze when the
NearestAirports page is accessed for the first time.
- Update multikey support to provide easy access to commonly used MFD
pages and access to softkeys.
Approach and GS modes - FG1000 and GFC700 can now be used for
autopilot coupled ILS or GPS approaches
Also:
- FLC mdoe now include an airspeed bug
- VDI indicator beside altitude tape now works
- Marker beacon displays O/M/I as appropriate
Add Multikey support for the FG1000 (:GF and :GP) to improve useability
by allowing direct entry of strings. This is massively easier than
fiddling with the control knobs.
Also correct interface variable name "frequency" to "period", which is
more accurate.
