I tested this on android beta, but github shows that this is since at least 2014:
4th,5th and 6th value on navbar ATN5 when screen is oriented in portrait mode have no titles - in landscape mode they have "<<<" title which signals that given value corresponds to the airfield mentioned to the left. In portrait mode those values are rearranged so without titles they are meaningless - setting title to something like "B.AlternArr", "Altern1Arr", "Altern2Arr" would reduce confusion.
https://github.com/LK8000/LK8000/blob/master/Common/Source/Draw/LKDrawBottomBar.cpp line 510:

if (ScreenLandscape) {
	showunit=LKFormatValue(LK_ALTERN1_ARRIV, true, BufferValue, BufferUnit, BufferTitle); // 100221
	_tcscpy(BufferTitle,_T("<<<"));
} else {
	showunit=LKFormatValue(LK_BESTALTERN_ARRIV, true, BufferValue, BufferUnit, BufferTitle); // 100221
	_tcscpy(BufferTitle,_T(""));
}

Esp when 6.0 manual says: "In the past, “portrait” mode was considered a second choice, after landscape, but now they are both equally good."

I don't understand. arrival altitudes in portrait are exactly below their correspondent names in atn5.
why would we clutter the screen with plain useless informations?

Hi, On my Samsung S4 with default bottom font size (0) I have 4 items per rows thus first arrival altitude is in the first row, next two in the second row - definitely not below correspondent names - there is no code that would order them so - layout algorithm works in LK in such way that it tries to fit as many on the first row as possible - there is only just simple reordering that assumes constant amount of items per row in portrait mode, so if I change font size to smaller value I will have even more/less items in the same line.

Maybe there should be code that would force this values to second row - but making also sure that if other items from first row won't fit in the first row won't be placed at them.

Hope now it is clear.

Regards,
Jarek Wosik
