Advanced:Status

From XCSoar

Jump to: navigation, search

Status files are how you control the output of XCS. Advanced:InputEvents are used to control the input or triggered events withi XCS. Once that event has been triggered you control what happens with Status.

A glide computer event such as reaching your Turn Pont may also trigger a status event such as showing you a Text Message and playing a sound.

More importantly these status entries can be controlled by having them stay until acknowledged, or automatically disappear.
