Originally, I modified another view instead of adding a new one
because I didn't want to have too many views. Someone on the list was
kind enough to suggest the modifications, so I added them to my local
preferences.
What about also increasing the number of views in the preferences
file,
if you add some?
<number-views type="int">7</number-views>
Interestingly enough, if I add a 7th node, the new view works and
so does 'V'. Overwriting one of flightgear's default views must be
unacceptable to some portion of the code. Adding the same view xml in
preferences works just fine as the 7th view, thanks for the suggestion.
It seems there is a requirement to leave the first six views there,
at least in this instance.
No idea, why we don't simply count the <view> nodes? Hmmm ...
My bad! I get flightgear-devel in digest form, and was copying from
the web page. There is no new digest yet and I was trying to respond
in a timely fashion without having to retype a lot or open mutliple
browser windows. (The web interface is not as convenient as a
newsreader or mail app unfortunately). I have an arm problem that
makes keyboarding difficult, so I just click-shift-clicked the whole
thing and then did paste quote.
I thought that whoever didn't want to read the thread would just
ignore it.
I am sorry to have troubled you, I will try to be less verbose in
quoting in the future.
I top posted because lee asked me to put my new text at the top or
bottom, so I put it at the bottom as it was closer to the question I
was answering. I prefer to answer in line as it involves less
keyboarding/mouse movement and is easier on the arms.
Again, I apologize for the trouble.
Thanks very much!
Ima
Please stop the annoying full-quoting (and top-posting).
