Testing, thanks.

Any way of transferring existing presets/configs to a new version? Also, wind direction suggestion: is it possible to replace the degrees with an arrow as the wind vector direction. I guess you would only need to update it every few seconds, if that, unless highly variable. Not sure if that's possible though. Just an easier visual wind indication in an already information overloaded situation (shooting landing practice with FSI Panel under different conditions. The ETrim reset comes in very useful when disengaging AP).

About to release an update... For the settings - if you put the files in the same folder it retains the updates, If the location changes it starts from scratch. This is Win AppSettings behavior. You could manually copy them I think: The location is C:\Users\\AppData\Local\FS20_HudBar\FS20_HudBar.exeUrl\\user.config The part changes for each location the program is run from - I would assume that if you copy the folder into the new one and then delete the latest version which has been created by the first run - the next run would use the previous version to update from. A bit complicated but I used to do this for some regresstion testing from old to new versions.

RE Wind arrow - thought about that, it needs a new Item that is a Graphic which is Drawn - I have to see if the height is OK to make a recognizeable arrow .. and then some math to get it right (but I have this done already for another proj)

Thanks for helping :)
