Flight plan editing
When the cursor is an insert or a field cursor, an operation can be
initiated by pressing the right knob button. Operations can also
be initiated using the touchscreen by touching the cursor.
For an insert cursor, initiating an operation will usually cause a
dropdown to appear, but in some cases an edit will be
immediately started. When a dropdown is shown, the right knob
is used to move the cursor through the options. Touching an
option will also move the cursor to that option. When the cursor
is highlighting the desired option, press the knob button or touch
the highlighted option to complete the selection.
For a field cursor, initiating an operation with the knob will put the
field into edit mode, allowing a value to be changed or entered
using the inner and outer knobs. Initiating the operation by
touching will put the field into edit mode and cause a virtual
keyboard to appear, allowing direct entry of a value. If an
operation was initiated using the knob, touching the field while in
edit mode will cause the virtual keyboard to appear. The knobs
are still functional when the virtual keyboard is shown.
To complete an edit, press the right knob button, touch the ENTR
key on the virtual keyboard, or press the ENTR button on the right
side of the AeroNav.
