free zoom continues from an off-list (pinched) scale, and snaps to the usual scale list again once close to a list value - add an optional map overlay QuickMenu button (Config → Look → Layout), on by default when a touch screen is detected #2610 - keep overlay zoom with the menu/QuickMenu buttons top-right, keep the north arrow clear of those buttons, and draw GPS status above the map scale / title line - swap map overlay sides: vario bar on the left, final glide bar on the right #1210 - show replay speed on the map scale overlay (e.g. REPLAY 2x) #2281 - improve the map items dialog: scale the “Your Position” aircraft icon to the row; Enter / Details opens Status: Flight - adjust contour line density with zoom, with profile presets for mountains, low lands, and similar landscapes #2233 - larger on-map typography (waypoint text, map-scale readout, topography labels) and a Waypoint icon size setting (50–200%) - hide obstacles at wider map scales than other non-landables, and draw up to 1024 waypoints at once (was 256) #2327 - add terrain shading orientation “fixed (Top Left)” - smooth the snail trail between GPS fixes and colour it from high-rate netto between points #2447 - fix hitchy OpenGL panning from repeated full terrain redraws when the view stays still near the edge of the terrain map - fix map vario / final-glide value labels: rounded rectangle with even padding and an unbroken outline #1438 - keep the aircraft and terrain together in follow mode on OpenGL (the plane no longer slides ahead of the map until the next full redraw) - fix crash opening the map item list on waypoints with long non-ASCII comments - apply snail trail wind drift only when zoomed in, so a Full trail in circling no longer looks shifted away from turnpoints at overview scales #2835 - fix black terrain after idle high-resolution sharpening on OpenGL devices with a 2048-pixel texture limit (e.g. Raspberry Pi 3) - fix fluctuating hill-shading strength #2262 - fix intermittent white-map hang on startup for non-OpenGL builds when drawing began before map bounds were ready #2734 * weather - remember overlay layer/time (or level/altitude) per weather map page, with a map-bottom cursor bar, Weather Setup, and Forecast Controls; Apply / Add page / Pages setup commit those values; weather controls work on non-OpenGL builds too #2690 #2705 #2583 - enhance RASP rendering (transparency, colour scale, numerical values) and add Auto update of the daily forecast while time follows the clock - add flugwetter.de RADAR Deutschland Nord/Mitte/Süd, Alpen, SAT RAD BLITZ, and Blitzkarte Europa; local radar uses Borkum instead of Emden - keep the RASP time cursor on all-day layers (e.g. PFD) and grey out time controls until a multi-slot layer is selected #2705 - accept lowercase ICAO codes in the METAR/TAF station list * airspace - add an airspace labels toggle (Display page 2, Quick Menu, and the ``AirspaceLabels`` input event) #1243 - tint the bottom airspace warning banner red (inside) or yellow (near), and show distance and time there - show Inside/Near on airspaces in the map items dialog, grey acknowledged airspaces in the map item and airspace lists, and an Enable button to clear a day acknowledgement #2404 - replace Radio with Details on airspace warnings;
