design change of the main msui for the initial flight track

Open ReimarBauer opened this issue 5 months ago • 3 comments

Currently we show a temorary flightpath, new flight track (1) Image

This has initial data and is used as a fallback when we logout from mscolab to load a flighttrack to the wayspoint table. This switch loads the fiirst in the list.

some of our functions do need always saved flight tracks.

From the behaviour it looks identical to an imported or saved flighttrack. I think we should change this.

The list should be empty until the temporary data is saved or something is imported but the initial waypoint data should be used when nothing else is there. (template config)

I think, the reason for having a default initial flight path is that many functions would not work without a flight path, e.g. side view. So, I don't understand, if you want to have no default initial flight path or if you just want to have it displayed in an other way. In our campaigns, we typically use to which we typically have to fly twice anyway. From that one can easily move or add waypoints. It is not clear to me, why you want to change this.

We need an Initial flightpath but we may be don't need it in the list. Its data comes from a config var. This should not become changed. I don't want it in the list as in the picture shown.

ok. That sounds meaningful. The UI normally shows the active flight path in bold face letters. If you modify the initial flight path (which one should be still able to do), there would be no shown active flight path until it is saved. I hope that is not too complicated to realize.
