SD mobile version 2.2.1 chart issues

I just went flying with the latest version (2.2.1) of SD mobile. I like the journey log and the 'course up' feature but I noticed two problem areas:



- sport sites like glider airfields, hang-glider sites and parachuting sites are only displayed as faint grey circles with no symbol. I remember it being different before but I could be wrong. I would prefer to see the glider and parachute symbols displayed in SD mobile in the same way they are displayed in SD plan or on CAA charts.



- I tried changing the 'chart appearance' setting to 'UK CAA VFR Charts' but was disappointed with the results. Danger areas are barely visible with just a faint line with no hashing. The CAA chart appearance setting in SD Plan is much better. Can SD mobile be set to display the CAA chart as it does in SD Plan?



Thank you.

We haven't changed the appearance of sporting sites in this version. We would like to make them appear just the same in future though.

There are technical limitations preventing us (currently) from making the chart appearance exactly the same with regards to the inner hatched border. Hopefully we will be able to lift these limitations in the future.
