Description

In the map view the information about the current Ap/Pe is shown two times when there is some manoeuvre node set.

When the new Ap/Pe - i.e. the one after the manoeuvre would be performed - would be roughly at the same place, the information is shown three times (2*old + 1 new).


showing only three dots "..." when there were some other - maybe too many? - labels activated, but I still need to nail it down, so I'm just mentioning it here in case someone already has.)

History

#1 Updated by Wintermute about 8 years ago

Wintermute tried to write:

There is also some - maybe related? - problem with the mouse-hover labels (in my case it was the inclination node) showing only three dots "..." when there were some other - maybe too many? - labels activated, but I still need to nail it down, so I'm just mentioning it here in case someone already has.

OK, that other problem seems to be just an other problem. ;)

There seems to be a limit of 3 "labels", so when there are already 3 selected, hovering on other ones sometimes shows nothing, and sometimes changes one of the old ones into "...". That, however, might be a feature, not a bug.

#2 Updated by Wintermute about 8 years ago

Maybe it's not so "Low" priority as I suspected - combined with that 3-labels limit (which I find slightly way, way too low), this problem makes it really painful to manage a manoeuvre node placed exactly on the Ap - I place the node, I right-click it in order to make it next-orbit, this right-click turns on the labels, and since there seem to be four labels at that point (2*current Ap, 1*the new Ap, 1*label for the node), I cannot see any information about any other point. Trying to right-click it again in order to deselect the labels hides the node-editing controls. So I right-click... yeah, exactly ;)
