Hopefully the attached scans of the schedule are readable and someone can tell me what I need to put in the fields (I think it's something to do with the CoG setting!). Thanks in advance Dave

Group: Forum Members Posts: 12, Visits: 38	Hi, I resumed this thread just to notify that I found some abnormal behaviour of SkyDemon plan (for PC) when configuring the weight & balance limits for an aeroplane. When the regional settings of Windows are configured so that the decimal separation character is the COMMA ',' and the list separation character is SEMICOLON ';', then SkyDemon on a random basis does not read and use all the points of the w&b limits polygon I defined, and/or does not consider subsequent modifications made to the polygon definition. Unfortunately, the aforementioned regional settings are by default for an italian setup of Windows. If I manually modify these settings to have '.' as decimal separator and ',' as list items separator, then everything works just fine. SkyDemon Plan 2.7.2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, all patches & updates by MS in place (including those for the .NET framework).
