The Brief Panel v1.1.0 — Update Notes This update focuses on readability, weather reliability, teleport accuracy, and general panel polish. RAW / OFP Tab The RAW OFP view is now much easier to read. Added A− / A+ font-size controls Added Ctrl + mouse wheel zoom Your selected OFP text size is remembered between sessions Increased the default text size so the OFP is more readable straight away Weather Improvements Weather fetching has been fixed and improved. Fixed live METAR / TAF fetching after the previous weather source stopped responding correctly Switched to a working weather source Added a loading spinner when pressing GET, so it is clear the panel is fetching data Weather results now show a green “last fetched HH” timestamp so you can see how current the data is Teleport Fixes Teleporting to departure and arrival airports should now behave much better. Fixed an issue where teleporting to an airport could place the aircraft too high above the ground The panel now reads the actual ground level at the airport instead of relying on incorrect elevation data from the flight plan Minimize / Window Behaviour Panel minimizing has been cleaned up. Fixed the blank black window that could appear when minimizing The panel now collapses correctly to the title bar, both docked and undocked Removed the transparent gap that could appear between the title bar and the page content Map Updates The map view has had a few small but useful layout fixes. Fixed the zoom-out button showing as a broken box instead of a minus sign Moved the zoom controls to the bottom-left so they no longer cover route information Moved the aircraft position and heading readout neatly under the waypoint count Settings Page The settings page has been tidied up. Lookup method and username / ID field now sit on one cleaner row Username / ID field is now labelled more clearly Added an About Me section Added a community / Discord credits strip General Polish A few small quality-of-life fixes have also been included. Larger, easier-to-grab scrollbars across the panel Scrollbars now highlight blue while being dragged Fixed an issue where [object Object] could appear in the flight number row when the OFP had no airline data
