Channel name not displayed in Overr SFs
Is there an existing issue for this problem?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
What part of EdgeTX is the focus of this bug?
Transmitter firmware
Current Behavior
I just noticed that with newer Edge versions, regardless of input, mix, or channel name, that the Overr special function only shows channel numbers CH1-CH32, and not the channel names.
Expected Behavior
In previous versions of EdgeTX, you could see the channel name which was to be overridden.
Steps To Reproduce
Name an output and override it with an SF. The SF will only show the channel number, but no name.
Version
Nightly (Please give date/commit below)
Transmitter
RadioMaster MT12
Operating System (OS)
macOS
OS Version
No response
Anything else?
I'm running the 3/31 nightly.

Great. Any idea when it will be released into EdgeTX?
I think you may misunderstand. That behaviour was a bug introduced in 2.10,
and fixed in 2.11 and a yet to be released 2.10.7. Prior to 2.10.x, the
channel number would be shown in relation to the Override SF, not the name,
but this was due to putsChn() function not behaving as it should be
generally. In this case, perhaps as with other instances, if an output is
named, the name should be shown. Some TLC generally might be nice, as on
colorlcd you have to set the channel number, but then only the name (if
set) is shown in the overview... would probably be nice to have the ...
regular ... source pick list there to show both name and number, and thus
the name can be consistently used in colorlcd, and then on B&W also.

Oh, I get it now. I didn’t read the pull request very thoroughly as i was quite tired…..
In that case i think it should be at least a setting so that the channel name is shown in SFs, etc as i really liked it and thought it was a new feature when i was using versions before the fix.
Should I open a feature request or just keep this issue?
