We're arguing from different definitions. I want the horizon line to line up along the horizon, the N degree lines to be N degrees from the horizon, the glide path indicator to lie along the right glide path, and the velocity vector to point where the aircraft is travelling. The existing HUD can only do this at one resolution, one field of view, and one aspect ratio. Since these aren't the values that I use (well, except aspect ratio -- I have a 4:3 monitor like everybody else), the existing code doesn't "work" for me. This isn't because I'm wrong or right, but because I want the code to do different things. I'm sorry you don't like my requirements. I honestly did try to accomodate yours. Really. Andy -- Andrew J.
