Now that in 2.10 it is possible to invert pots, there could be scope for this also for switches.

What is a use case for doing this at the radio level, rather than just using inverted state of an switch?

LupusTheCanine commented 2 months ago

Readability and consistency, especially when modding the hardware (switches).

OckelboB16 commented 2 months ago

The case at the radio level is for example how the switch input is displayed (x-value) on the curves graph.

Not too fan of it. If you mod hardware, simply put the switch, or wire it, in the right position (as a reminder, the rule is "down is the closest to your head" (lost in translation)

Well, I tend to hold my radio horizontally so "closest to the head" is inverse of what is indicated by my TX16S 🤣. It could be hidden in a config file but would be nice to have.

Would also mean you don’t have to boot the radio to check the orientation then desolder and resolder if you replaced a switch and put it in upside-down
