Infoboxes in tophat and Seeyou

There is an infobox in tophat CRUISE GR Which given achieved L/D in last cruise.
I cannot find equivalent in SeeYou.
Does it exist?

Nope, It's one of the reasons I couldn't get excited about SeeYou Mobile. I've tried three different systems that run SYM and gave up each time and came back to XCSoar.

XCS is certainly a complex (confusing) piece of software, but after several years of use I understand most of the "info boxes" and can show the ones I want to see to support decisions. There are several "beginner" setups that have been explained both in the manual, and in the TE version that Tobias maintains.

How about this:
.. Flown L/D (Cur.L/D) = Current glide ratio estimated over the last two minutes of flight.
Works Great

Gents -

Please help me out. Why would I care what my achieved L/D was in my last cruise?

That real estate and air mass is now behind me.

Thanks -

Lou, that's what I was thinking. Might be a different airmass.

Might be the same or better airmass, too.Â* It's just information. How
you use it is what counts.

I use it frequently on final legs to judge the approach (required L/D versus current L/D). If your final leg stretches about 100-130 km with a marginal approach, any information helps.

I watch the predicted arrival altitude, as it changes during the final glide. That implicitly shows whether your actual glide slope is as good as the predicted slope. If the wind estimate is incorrect, you'll see the results. If you fly slower than the speed-to-fly that the arrival altitude is computed for, then the arrival altitude should slowly increase as you glide. Etc.

Same information, displayed differently.
