Plane Symbol Rotation

Featured Replies

Hello Maarten,

 

I used to be able to rotate the red plane symbol with the scroll wheel of my mouse.  That doesn't seem to work anymore.  Is there a new method to rotate the plane?

 

Regards, Gerry

Hi Gerry,

 

On request of another user I changed it a few versions ago. It was done to avoid accidental rotation of the flight/user aircraft when the actual intent is to zoom the map in and out. You now have to hold down both the Ctrl and Shift keys to rotate the aircraft. Holding down the Ctrl key while rolling the mouse wheel will change the altitude in 100ft increments and holding down the Shift key will change the altitude in 1000ft increments.

 

thanks, Maarten
