FM Global Variables #2498

Open CarlKnox opened 1 year ago

CarlKnox commented 1 year ago

Is there an existing issue for this problem?

What part of EdgeTX is the focus of this bug?

Transmitter firmware

Current Behavior

v2.7 would list the GV1-9 in each FM so you could label them or see how they change as switches are thrown. v2.8 rc2 does not show GV. I have widgets using GV, so I know they are still in use and working. I just can't see them from the Tx.

Expected Behavior

Add GV to FMs similar to Trims, perhaps.

Steps To Reproduce

Press Model button Select Flight Mode Select FM0 image

Version

Other (Please specify below)

Transmitter

Radiomaster TX16S / TX16SMK2

Anything else?

v2.8.0-rc2

Are you sure you're not confusing the FM tab with the GVs tab? This is the FM tab from 2.7... image ... and this is the GV tab (which is exactly the same in 2.8 as it hasn't been touched... yet!)... image

Maybe move this to a feature. I'm thinking if GV can see (monitor) FM, then FM should also see GV.

I guess then really need to think about:

@pfeerick A friend of mine kept bugging me with this as well. The point is: you can witness it on the 128x64 UI (and only there!).

I think basically having a table with the GVs and values.

lol... ah, ok, so the 128x64 doesn't have a GV page at all... that would explain it 🤣

Interesting... so people actually want the regression in capability of the 128x64 B&W UI (since the 212x64 B&W UI also shows like colorlcd)? Where you have to go into a flight mode to see the GVs? As opposed to being able to see all the GVs at once and which flight mode is using them? I bet not... pretty sure they want it both ways, and the cake too! 🤣 So that's what they'll get (not the cake, I'm keeping that!).

Sometimes you might want to set the GV for a single flight mode, thus editing more than one at the same time, and sometimes you might prefer to edit a GV for all flight modes at the same time. Really depends on what you’re trying to achieve.
