Language<\/strong><\/p>\n

By default, XCTrack will use the language set for the OS. However, you may want to use a different language.<\/p>\n

Most Roadmaps are available with local language (for example, you are flying in Korea) and in English. If the language set in XCTrack (example “German”) is different from the local language (Korean) or English, the local language will be displayed on the map. In this specific case, set the language of XCTrack to English to get latin characters. You can check which languages are supported by the roadmap on https:\/\/www.openandromaps.org\/<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Theme<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can choose between 5 different display themes. However, note that the display theme chosen will be influenced by the Map theme selected (see Maps details above). Using AIR\u00b3 Manager<\/a>, you can select a theme for XCTrack and AIR\u00b3 Manager will choose both the right Map theme that fits with XCTrack display theme.<\/p>\n

As described in the General information regarding widget configuration in the XCTrack Pro widgets manual<\/a>, each widget can be set with a specific theme.<\/p>\n

You can for example use a Black theme for the main theme and use a white theme for the map. AIR\u00b3 is using 30% less energy with Black theme compared with White theme. However, not all pilots will get used to read the map with Black theme. You could set the map widget (See XC Map widget<\/a>, Thermal assistant widget<\/a> or Task map widget<\/a> in the XCTrack pro widgets manual<\/a>) to use a White theme while the main display theme is Black, such as with the following screenshot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Fullscreen<\/strong><\/p>\n

XCTrack is usually used with full screen. However, if you want to keep your Android icons on top and the system buttons on the right, you can disable the “Full screen” option.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Orientation<\/strong> doesn’t require more explanations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Repaint frequency<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally, you can also change the “Repaint frequency” for quicker or lower repaint of the screen, but take into account that this will influence the energy consumption.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
