Hey everyone,

I noticed that airspace labels stay in a predefined position regardless of the current center of view, so once you move the map they can be out of view, even if the airspace they relate to is still shown.

Especially around crowded aerodromes with complex airspace structures this can require the user to pan around in order to find the correct airspace label, making the usage of the app less straightforward.

Is there any chance to change the rendering so that every airspace in view shows its own label, regardless of the selected center of view, like the competing apps do? (e.g next to the airspace’s border)

Greetings,
Johnny

I agree.  This is really troubling.  Munich has all the airspace steps displayed, EXCEPT the inner part.  The blue shaded airspace needs zooming in, otherwise you will not know what it is.

And very difficult to spot are the German TMZ.  The grey line is too thin.  
In this case the northern part starts at 4500 ft, but the label is out of view.  So it is easy to mix it up with the other parts that start at higher altitudes.

You have apparently solved my Munich example, but the TMZ display above is unchanged.

Personally, I don‘t think that „static“ fixes for this problem will work. The rendering needs to be fixed in a way that it dynamically shows a label for each airspace displayed. This assures that every information about the relevant airspaces are available at first glance without further input, regardless of the selected center of view.

This is fixed with EV4 4.9.  Thank you for working on this.
