Hi all,
Changes in program behavior can be confusing, so I apologize for some
recent instability in GUI operational behavior. Code revision r8146 is
yet another attempt to get it right -- or as near "right" as possible --
while supporting both simplex and split-frequency default operating styles.
The following is the commit message for r8146:
##########################################################################
Another try at optimizing the GUI for simplex and split behavior.
Details below:
1. Checkbox "Double-click on call sets Tx and Rx freqs" has been removed
from the Settings -> General tab.
2. Checkbox "Lock Tx Freq" on main window is relabled "Hold Tx Freq".
3. Behavior now defaults to the "simplex" behavior in use up to code
revision r8123. In particular, double-clicking on decoded mesages
that do not contain your own call moves both Rx and Tx frequencies.
If the first callsign is your own call, only Rx freq moves.
4. If "Hold Tx Freq" is checked, double-clicking on decoded messages
moves the Rx frequency; Tx frequency is moved only if CTRL was held
down.
5. Clicking on the waterfall moves Rx and Tx frequencies as before:
Rx only on a simple click, Tx only on SHIFT-click, and both on
CTRL-click. This happens even if "Hold Tx Freq" is checked (which
is why this box is no longer labeled "Lock Tx Freq").
##########################################################################
If I have not made mistakes, this arrangement should provide full
backward compatibility and also easy assertion of a mode that keeps your
Tx frequency fixed until you explicitly change it.
If you can build r8146 for yourself and try it on the air, please post
your comments here.
