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.

I am new to SD. Installed it on a windows8 machine. Worked fine except cant left click mouse pad and move around map (can on radar screen) it looses portions of the map and can only be recovered by zooming in and out again. Irritating.
Had live notams/wind etc.

Then loaded to a nexus10 as my mobile device yesterday. That seems ok. But now the PC wont collect live data saying that my subscription must have expired (not true).
Also cant save a route to cloud and collect on the nexus.
