Hi,

I would like to purchase Skydemon, but there is one thing that is holding me off. I tested Jeppesen Mobile Flitedeck, Garmin Pilot and Air Navigatioin Pro and Skydemon intensely. I like Skydemon with all it´s features the best. But the only thing that is missing and is for me absolute essential and that it is the bearing indicator. I don´t mean just showing it on the map or the HSI, I meant showing it in the upper row next to the distance to a waypoint in numbers of degree.
I don´t know one GPS application ever since I am flying, that doesn´t have this feature. And the is a reason for it. Because it is one of the basics, that every GPS must have.
For example when I am flying and I am off course to my next waypoint, I look on the GPS and read the bearing, put my heading bug on the course and fly to the waypoint. Or even when I am on course, I read the bearing sometimes just to check my compass.

I know that this was discussed before but and I understand, that you can´t fulfill every single whish of just one user. But please think about it again, it would make your program just perfect. Skydemon does not have to fear, by adding  a feature, that all the other programs have, not to be any different any more. I am sure that by how far Skydemon came by now, other programs try to copy it, because it is so good.

+1. It is already shown on the DI instrument so someone must have felt it was a good idea. However it's just not in an ideal colour, in an ideal size and an ideal place on the screen to be as useful as it could be. As the TRK M instrument has no 'second function' (tap to change) then why not just pop it under there so if we want it, we can toggle between TRK M (which is the magenta line track and we may be WELL off that) and BRG which will give a rough steer to the waypoint. 

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but something occurred to me as I read through it. Just a little idea.

If one deviates significantly (whatever that might be) from the route, wouldn't it be nice if a rubber band similar to the normal route legs popped up between the aircraft and the next waypoint? A dynamic track to next point, if you will. Give it a different colour, but maybe let it keep the 'click for distance and direction' property.

What do you think?
