#2144 view manager not working as expected

[Andrea Vezzali]

Recently I noticed that the view manager isn't working as expected, the key "v/V" doesn't change the view, the key "x/X" doesn't zoom in/out anymore

Could you give the git ids of your flightgear and fgdata? The new view system might not work if the flightgear/ and fgdata/ checkouts don't match.

fgdata:
$ git log
commit 24553feb57254155520ce587cefd333a64f275da (HEAD -> next, origin/next)

flightgear:
$ git log
commit 6ce33fcb5c483254be1c05a13a27dfa33dca731e (HEAD -> next, origin/next-gen/vulkan, origin/next, origin/HEAD)

Thanks for that information; it rules out mismatching flightgear/fgdata.

Could you paste the terminal output from fgfs? - sometimes there are Nasal errors there that might help to figure out what is going on. Also, what OS are you using?

There have been some issues with the new view system where old autosave files can cause problems (on Linux these are called ~/.fgfs/autosave_*.xml). Could you maybe try deleting these files to see whether that affects things?

Thanks,

Thanks for your help... Deleting ~/.fgfs/autosave_*.xml solved my problems... anyway my OS is: Fedora 30 x86_64 and AFAIK, the terminal output didn't show any Nasal errors.
