Yeah, we just look at the minimum screen size I think, so we ignore the current portrait/landscape setting.

I think it only displays if there's a minimum screen size available. Maybe your device is just under the threshold. What's the smallest screen dimension in MM?


Hi Tim,
the visible screen size of my Nexus 2013 is 95*145 mm, for the Nexus 2012 it will be similar, but I have no exact figures at the moment.
I tried to change SD to landscape mode but there is also no graphical bar visible.

Dear Tim,
the last SD Beta works great on my old Nexus 2012. Only what I am missing is the graphical display of the different airspaces.
The new WHAT'S HERE box shows all other extended information but now graphical bar. Is it a bug or is there a checkbox to display/hide it?`
Nexus 2012/2013, Android 6.0.1, last SD Beta 3.8

Tim,
‌it is difficult to describe.
- I plan a route and open PLOG.
- Black screen for about haf a second, then PLOG opens correctly
No simulation running, no moves, ... and suddenly SD starts switching plog/black screen/plog (1-5 times in direct sequence)... looks like the PLOG table is re-building. Cannot provoke that behaviour.

Thanks everyone. FaRu, could you elaborate on the blinking PLOG problem? How do we see it?

The beta has just been updated. If you've experienced a bug in a previous beta please re-test and
The pilot log bug, seeing only 2 third of the plog, is fixed, but now it sometimes blinks (like rebuilding the information/display). Very good: the screen response time improved (or does my tablet have a better day?). This slowing down issue ... the SD team seems to have found the reason. With almost all map information being displayed (including terrain, trees, some weather info) I hovered over the map for several minutes, opened airfield plates, ran simulations ... and it still worked.
T‌he new What's Here is a real improvement!

In Simulation mode, the problem with the plog (right 1/3 screen blank) has been fixed.

When I try to explore an airfield, the satellite imagery does not always load.  I couldn't Explore Bembridge or Southampton Airports but I was able to explore Popham (Popham is my base and I may well have cached imagery of that airfield on my Tablet).

T‌he spawn Aircraft feature in Simulate mode is great. Really useful to see how traffic warnings will be presented/alerted.‌‌

Tim,

I've traced the problem with Exploring an Airfield‌ to a problem with Google Maps on my Nexus.  The app needed to be re-initialised.  I've got Google Maps to work correctly in stand-alone mode. When Sky Demon calls upon it, the satellite imagery is now loaded reliably.

I‌'ve also noticed that since I have fixed Google Maps, the slight sluggishness in SkyDemon re drawing the Map as it is moved has now disappeared.‌
