Change confusing "X-box" menu items #240

Closed djmolny closed 4 years ago

djmolny commented 4 years ago

Under the "Sequence" menu item the user can select "X-box entry" or "X-box entry away".

In discussing aerobatic sequences, "X" typically refers to the right-left axis of the box as viewed by the judges. But it's used here as an abbreviation for the word "cross". And cross-box entries take place on the Y axis.

I recommend changing these menu items to "Y-axis entry" and "Y-axis entry away".

Good point. But maybe it's best to just change it to Crossbox? This would be clear for anybody.

The meaning of "Cross-box entry" is clear and that change would eliminate any confusion.

Great! Will be in the next version.
