I found it to be confusing to switch between using Skydemon on a PC and an Android device as the way you access windows, setting and function (e.g. menu hierarchies) are quite different.

In particular, I've not managed to figure out the following. Can someone help me out?

1) How do you get raw TAFs/METARs on the PC version?

2) How can you get magnetic tracks in the Pilot Log in the Android version? In the PC version, this is selected in the Print Centre, but there is no Print Centre on the Android... (Magnetic Tracks are important because when you navigate using VORs you use them to determine the VOR radial. Similarly when using an ADF.)

3) When opening airfield plates in the Android, I don't get a choice of all installed PDF readers, as I do when opening PDF files from other programs.

There is currently no way of adjusting the settings for the basic PLOG that is included in SkyDemon for Android. Over time as the PLOG becomes more sophisticated, the options will be exposed.

We don't know why you'd get a menu of PDF readers from one app but not from another. We've seen the menu shown for SkyDemon here; it may depend on the apps you have installed and whether they have registered themselves as handling locally saved PDF files.
