Padlock display F7 hides trim display

Post by philster57 » Sun Dec 13, 2020 9:23 pm

I tried the padlock function/action (F7) the other day. It didn't seem that helpful but maybe that's because I use a head tracker (TrackIR 5). Condor displays the name of the glider it is currently locked on near the bottom right of the screen. This the same area of the screen where the trimmer position/status is displayed. The issue is that once padlock/F7 is used it keeps displaying info and therefore I can no longer see the trim status.

Anyone know how to operate this properly or a fix?

Padlock view would be much more useful if it selected the closest glider first.

I have tried to use it to work out where the other glider in my thermal went only to have to cycle through several other gliders that where not a threat.
