I seem to have lost the little crosses ("x") which I have seen on final glide when there is intervening terrain. The crosses that show where the terrain collision will occur.

I thought it was because of something in the Beta version, but I get the same in the older "standard" 7.0 version on the PC too as well as Android Beta.

I have seen the lack of crosses during Condor Races as well as Logger Replays so I am presuming there is a setting that I have changed somewhere by mistake? The task I am testing with is an AAT task, if that has any bearing on the issue, but I am sure it was also the case on a normal task a few days earlier....

I also notice in the Beta version that the "M" icon at the bottom right of the screen no longer changes to denote that the Thermaling or Final Mode is active. I wonder if this is by design?

- Final Glide :
cross are drawn only if estimated Arrival Height is > 0

- "M" Symbol :
could be an artefact of "MapSymbol=UTF8" parameter ( System config Page 12 ), try with ""MapSymbol=Bitmap".

Thanks Brunotl (yet again),

You are right. I tried changing the setting back to "MapSymbol=Bitmap" from UTF8, in the Beta version and keeping the replay to x1 and the Thermal and Final modes did change the Bitmap "M". It doesn't change when set to the UTF8 setting.

I am learning all sorts of wonderful things about LK8000 as I am flying almost daily competitions with Condor 2 at the moment - learning much more than using it only when I was gliding in the "real" world.
