Hi there,

Sometimes I have to use a waypoint that is only known from its long/lat coordinates and not defined by a city, reporting point, airfield etc. (E.g. for the matter I just posted in the thread: intelligent level changes. 

In the pilotlog and the briefing pack these waypoint just appear with their coordinates and dont mean a thing when flying. Most of the times I only use these waypoints once, for a specific flight. E.g to avoid overflying gliderareas

Is there an option when clicking on the waypoint (or in the pilot log) to quickly rename it. (E.g. avoid GLDRArea NW Münster or ALT change NW of MS). This renaming only needs to be saved for this particular flight. Benefit: it doesn clog up your favorite, and self created waypoints. 

Any thoughts?

Kind regards,

Patrick

I certainly support this suggestion. It would be great, if you could implement this feature. Rename a short-time waypoint for just one flight-planning, so it has a meaningful name in the briefing pack.
As soon as a new flight(-planning) ist started, a new route created, or that waypoint is removed, SkyDemon could immediately forget that waypoint name.
Skydemon offers several options, what you can do with a user-generated waypoint, but unfortunately, you can not rename it - pity. If you could, it would be a major improvement for the use of the briefing-pack in my opinion.
