That was easy. I finally put the property bindings in the correct place and it works fine.
You can now set a default for pilot "view" offset aka chase view offset. The fix is here: http://www.spiderbark.com/fgfs/chaseviewoffset.tar.gz Contains: sgVec3Slider.cxx and sgVec3Slider.hxx Extract the tarball in src/GUI. This is the suggested xml to be included within the <sim> settings. Note that I have defined an empty view[0] and view[1] for the chase view. Thinking at some point this could be expanded perhaps to give multiple external views to toggle through. <sim> ... <!-- pilot view --> <view n="0"> <desc>pilot view</desc> </view> <!-- chase view --> <view n="1"> <desc>chase view</desc> <default> <pilot-offset> <heading-deg>180.0</heading-deg> <pitch-deg>0</pitch-deg> <radius-m>25</radius-m> </pilot-offset> </default> </view> ... </sim> This is working as is now, but we talked about renaming. Seems we talked about "Chase View Offset". If that sounds ok to everyone, I'll make the name changes in the classes, property names and the references on the menu (gui.cxx) and elsewhere to the new name.
