  • OLC format

    From Sam Zimmerman@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 7 05:24:05 2023
    Has anyone else noticed a change in OLC daily flights format? Suddenly, I can only get a page with the interactive map, and there is no way to edit or download a file that I can find. And I cannot change map to "classic" style which I prefer.

    Works for me; as long as I'm signed in, I can download yesterday's flights from Seminole Lake IGCs.

    The edit button is there, but it has to be your flight of course, you
    must be logged in, and it must be within 48 hrs of landing.

    The download button is now labeled IGC, works as always.

    Looks like they moved all the buttons for IGC and edit, etc from the top right corner to the top left corner of the flight page.

    Turns out that Safari/Mac does not display the buttons. Firefox/Mac does.

    Linux/Brave displays the buttons; I just had to find them.

    I just love it when they change something just because they can...

    I just wanted to download today's flight so I could post it on
    Skylines.aero, which is down at the moment.

    Same for me Sam, a bit confusing almost like their FAI triangles. OBTP

    I'm using Windows 11 and the OLC website was really messed up on all 3 browsers(chrome, edge and foxfire). I wrote the support at OLC and on Easter morning they answered. The recommendation is to change the zoom in settings of the browsers to 90% and
    it worked great. They said they are working to fix the problem, but in the mean time Zoom to 90%
