I have complained under my breath about this for a long time, but never thought to post anything, until i mentioned it and found that it is bothersome to other pilots as well.

In dirscan, why is it that the "Angle" setting has a slider even though the value is limited to three digits and common presets, would be easy to do on the fly ie 90°,180°, 360°. While the "range" setting, which has a 10 digit value to adjust, and usually needs to be adjusted more often, and more quickly requires me to type the value. A range slider, or some savable presets, seems like it would be very easy to implement, and would be much more useful that having to type , 2,10000000 vs 2100000 vs 210000. Maybe its my arthritis, but this just seems backwards and annoying to me.

Tell you what I do like though: A killer. A dyed-in-the-wool killer. Cold-blooded, clean, methodical and thorough.

yes, the interface is not that easy to use but what bothers me most is the lack of a shortcut for the scan button.

I dont want clicking the damn button all the time, give us a shortcut for that damn!!!

Both viable points and in my opinion poor UI design decisions. Should be improved for the sake of usability.
