speed makes me dizzy. It spins so fast so as to be
un-intelligible. That’s not so bad, but it seems not to be
possible to make it go slow enough. The range of speeds I find
useful are about 2mm either side of the central slider point (out of a
total range of 15mm each side) on my monitor, and even with it as close to
centre as I can get it with keyboard or mouse it rotates at a comfortable
speed, but still too fast for some applications. I’d like to
make it really slow sometimes.<o:p></o:p></span></font></li>
<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
lang=EN-NZ style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>This may be a bigger
thing. The scene:station visibility for entrance and fixed station
is based on flags I think, and this is very useful to be able to isolate
these parameters. <br>
I use a lot of station marks (which I understand are not considered to be
flags), as in<br>
mark RO42 RO46 RO47 RO49 RO54 fixed<br>
to identify survey cairns or otherwise somewhat permanent station markers
in the cave (and on the surface).<br>
Is it possible to add “fixed station marks” as well as the
“fixed station co-ords(?)” already implemented?<br>
<br>
Hmm, and while I’m at it continuation question marks and comments would
be a useful thing as well.<o:p></o:p></span></font></li>
