Hi All, Inspired by the checklists provided for the excellent Cessna 337, I've added generic checklist support to the GUI.
The GUI element is pretty straightforward, with a drop-down to select a checklist and the checklist displayed as one would expect: http://wiki.flightgear.org/File:Aircraft_Checklists_dialog.jpg Aircraft developers can simply add checklists by setting up properties under /sim/checklists. This is documented in this wiki article: http://wiki.flightgear.org/Aircraft_Checklists, and the c172p now includes and example. I think this provides a much easier way to navigate and display checklists than over-loading the Aircraft Help dialog, as well as taking up minimal screen real-estate. Hopefully as we move to using Canvas in the future we'll be able to improve the checklist display to include a set of dots linking the items. Feedback and comments are welcome as always, particularly if any aircraft developers would like any enhancements made. -Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
