Rotor control buttons

[jmeloranta]

Is there any way to add more rotor buttons? I know that I can create another set but then I have to be switching between the sets. Right now we have (basic) N, S, W, E and I would like to have in this set added NW, SW, SE, NE. It seems that the number of buttons in a set is limited to 4?

No, there is not way.

Yes, currently, the number of buttons is limited to 4.

Just for info. Did you know that you can use the feature that when you click on the rotator map, the antenna rotates there?

OK but I would still prefer to see NW, SE etc. I made another button set but I have to keep switching between the sets. Jussi

Sorry for this question — it’s more of a user survey to help me understand things better, but why do you prefer clicking a button when it can be done by clicking on the map? I’m really not questioning your way of using it; I just want to understand the user’s perspective, which helps me improve other parts of QLog.

Simple buttons are easier to use. That map is tiny at least on my display. How do I make it bigger?

You should be able to resize the widget and map will resize automatically to follow.

If I make the widget bigger, it will eat the space from other widgets. Simple buttons take less space on the screen.
