thanks for the information. I changed to winpilot and got the purple
dots to show, also named a .prf file to read: my_profile.prf but when I
restart and select that file, the program still loads with the zoom set
to auto! no big deal, but it is one of those little things that us ADD
guys get all flipped out over when it doesn't work....

I think you'll find that some items (auto zoom is one, whether the
display shows topo, terrain or both) can be overridden during a flight
but next start-up will revert to what you configured. The idea is that
what you configured is what you get when you boot it up as opposed to how
you left it last time. That works for me, but ymmv.

nope, visual glide is back..............I replayed a flight on the PDA
and then tried Visual Glide, it shows up now.

thanks!

PS..........still don't seem to get the .prf file to hold the zoom
setting that I set, how exactly does one save a .prf file anyway? I
went in to the config menu and made some changes there, and then
saved, this was after I created a my_setup.prf file, hoping that what
ever changes I made would be saved to that file. Not so upon starting
XC soar and accessing my file.
