Title: Screen Tabs
Post by: moonie31 on January 31, 2017, 11:58:42 AM
Morning gents,

Ive not been on the forum for a while but still enjoying the hobby.

Last week for some reason all the tabs at the bottom of my screen for different locations have disappeared? Have I pressed something inadvertently that I don't know about? Ive had a look through all the menus but cant find anything?

A confused me

Andy

Hi Andy

Are you referring to these tabs?

Do you see the bottom of the screen where they would normally display?

And are all your other BaseStation "personalised" settings maintained?

Can you open your BaseStation.ini file with Notepad and check what you have under [RadarDisplay].  For example, this is my ini after adding some new tabs.  You'll have to close BaseStation and restart it if you want to view any changes to the ini file.

[RadarDisplay]
NumTabs=3
Tab0-HasRight=0
Tab0L-SavedView=Default
Tab0L-HasElevation=0
SelectedTab=2
Tab1-HasRight=0
Tab1L-SavedView=Denmark
Tab1L-HasElevation=0
Tab2-HasRight=0
Tab2L-SavedView=Default
Tab2L-HasElevation=0

Strange.

You could try changing NumTabs=1 to NumTabs=11 in the ini file.  Close BaseStation and restart after editing the ini file.

Do you recall if you recently made any other changes?

Do you have any [SavedViews] in the ini?

Mike,

Thanks, that did the trick. No idea what caused it to change?? I just started it up and they were gone!!

All sorted now

Many Thanks as always

Great.

That's a strange one.  I can't imagine how the tab count would change.
