| Open Control - some questions from a new user | |
Simon White  9th Jun 2014 11:29:50 | Hi
I have just stumbled across Open Control and have experimenting with some radio functionality via Ipad. Great tool BTW :) Some questions for the experts please: 1. I am replicating the PMDG 737NGX radio stack. There appears to be a difference in how comms frequency 'fractions' are handled. PMDG appears to be simply dropping the digits after 2 decimal places -- e.g. 123.456 becomes 123.45. Whereas Open control is rounding it off - so 123.456 would become 123.46. So the PMDG FSX panel display is showing different values than Open Control's web page. I have changed Open Control to show 3 decimal places but not as nice. My question: Is there any way to alter the maths rounding function in Open Control to simply drop the extra digits - per how PMDG is doing it? Maybe a future enhancement? 2. Is there any way to change the Font the variable is displayed in? 3. Is there any way to use a rotary button to change the Comm frequencies? The Binding list doesn't show it - like push button does. Thanks Simon |
Dave Wave   9th Jun 2014 19:27:05 | Hi Simon, I wrote open control 3 years ago, I thought it would be popular but it never gained enough interest to market commercially. As such I doubt I'll ever get round to making your suggestions.
However, I've left it as a free download for everyone to use. |

Thanks for the feedback. Pity - very useful tool which I plan to use a lot for my ipad. Simon |
