Docked AIS target list lower pane, 5.2

[Mattzilla]

Hi,
Been playing with OpenCPN 5.2 while on delivery, have 2 x laptops and have somehow managed to dock the AIS target list to the bottom of screen horizontally on one laptop, but cannot on the other! Cant find a setting for this, however if I close and reopen the list, it remembers the docked behaviour.



See attached screenshot.



Anyone know how this occurred, and why works on one not the other? Have docked dashboard vertically on both on RHS.

Matzilla...
That's a bug. Not really supposed to dock there, but sometimes does. What is missing is an "un-dock" capability.

To undo this, you will need to manually edit your OpenCPN config file, and remove the entry titled:
AISTargetListPerspective

I would appreciate it if you would add this item to the Flyspray "OpenCPN 5.2.0 Release" project.
Thanks for the report

Thanks for the information - I actually like it as a feature and was trying to dock on my own laptop
Any chance it could be made to work?

Matt..


I see your Flyspray report. Thanks.
Yes, we could make it work reliably if we have a "right-click/undock" menu item, something like Dashboard does. I'll take a look at that option.

If possible that would be a great feature to have.


Thanks again.
