With the new printing centre, I find the new PLOG format on A4 portrait is pretty much unreadable in the air.



Like many, I use an A5 kneepad, and used to print the plog onto A4 portait, and fold down a bit to fit. However the font size is too small for my aged eyes!



I would like to be able to remove a few columns - especially the duplication of To/From columns. Also ideal would be the ability to add/remove radio entries



The title is pretty horrible - if I plot a round robin route, it insists on calling it, for example, Bourn - Bourn,ignoreing where I am going. Could we not use the saved file name as alternative?

We actually used to use the filename if the route was saved, and this feature didn't survive the transition to the new Print Center based PLOG. We've just now reinstated it for the 2.1 version and this will be in the next beta release.

Regarding the format of the PLOG when printing for A5, we are looking at ways to make this more readable. For the time being it would be helpful to have constructive suggestions as to how to achieve this. Everybody wants different things from their PLOG so we have no illusions about being able to please everyone all the time, but if a consensus can be reached as far as modifications go, then we will do it.

Dear Tim,



it's really difficult to have a Plog that fits for all users, so could you resume the "save as..." option that I remember was in Sky Demon 1, allowing users to save the Plog in Excel format? So we could arrange columns and rows as we prefer without need of programming effort.



Thank you for your attention, and for this amazing software!
