Eeew ... indeed. And because our cvs history got disrupted for no good reason and there are no meaningful comments, it can't even be tracked back. But it's very old code, and nobody seems to use those properties: $ cd $FG_ROOT/Aircraft/Instruments $ find -name \*.xml|xargs grep _asc $ cd $FG_ROOT/Aircraft/Instruments-3d $ find -name \*.xml|xargs grep _asc So, rather than adding more stuff like this, I'd think about removing that from navradio.cxx. > By difficult to re use I mean by overlaying a 2d panel on the PFD [...] But it has nothing to do with overlaying ... > I would prefer the textranslate method , so I need a "position" > for each character in the string... ... but only with wanting to use the ascii code as offset in an alphabet stripe on a texture. In that case (and if Nasal can't be used) we should think about a different way to achieve that. It can't be that for every text on instruments we also have to push a series of ASCII values into the property tree. That's bad design. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.
