Re: [Flightgear-devel] Problems with 'V' (backwards view) on Mac os X, fixed

Sorry to waste bandwidth on a user > error... OK, then the real symptom here is an interaction with the Nasal view management code, which doesn't read "number-views" at all, but instead loops through the actual property children of the view node. I agree with Melchior: what is this thing doing there? Who reads it, and why do we need it?

If I had to guess what would cause something like this, it would be a keymap bug in the OS X plib or glut port...

Anyway... I can't find any problems here - cvs a day or two old - I tried just calling fgfs with no params, to get the C-172, and could scroll backwards and forwards through the views ok. Cycled forward to chase w/o yaw, cycled backwards from it - no problems. Then tried both the A-10s, because you mention that they had no chase view w/o view and had no problems there either, including the chase view w/o yaw. Do you get a 'Drop View' with the A-10s? The Drop view should be the 'last' view on the A-10s, before you end up back in the Cockpit and should come after the chase view w/o yaw. Do you get both the chase view w/o yaw and drop view on the A-10s?

If it only happens with a specific aircraft, which one is it?
