      A *.GPX route from SkyDemon doesn't work. Can you fix it?
      Skydemon is free you can grab a PC installer on their website (requires email registration and EU ip-address).

          @korina yeah, for some reason, the flight planning plugin doesn't read SkyDemon's GPX-file.

              @korina check your email. SkyDemon is the most popular VFR navigation app in Europe and it's compatibility with the flight planning plugin is crucial for users comfort :)

                    @korina do you plan to bring up route function into the app? A simple data sync (read-only, without editing) of your planned route in a browser or a file upload option would be a good start :)

                        Elevation issues:
                        Something has changed recently and now the plug app defaults to the surface elevation in the map and profile views. I've tried it in 2 different web browsers and get the same results. Attempts to reset the elevation in the flight plan or the map elevation slider does work. The map and elevation profile jumps back displaying the data for the surface, not the set elevation.

                        I've loaded old flight plans from November that I know that worked at that time, and they too no longer work with respect to the elevation profile, and showing / computing the information at the desired altitude.

                        Thanks

                          @ken-miller-fly I think there is an issue with the server providing elevation data. Will let you know.

                            It should work now.

                                Hi everyone and Merry Xmas!

                                Is there a way to increase the visibility of the pressure /altitude levels and respective temperatures on the screens: I do struggle to discern them since they’re so faint.
                                The same with the freezing line throughout the timeline.
                                Thank you in advance!
                                Love the route planning ability by the way!

                                    Indeed.

                                    Is there a way to make FL100 etc markings more visible, change the color or make them bold?

                                    Same with the freezing level altitude line?

                                    Thx in advance

                                        @dnone1 thx for using the plugin.

                                        Good idea. Will fiddle a bit.
