Running Sober's, which means TDW's UIs, with the SH3 style interface on a 1920 x 1024 display and 44 year old eyes.

Lets start with the goal:

To be able to input a heading easier.

Using Real Nav, a degree or two off makes a big difference at the end of a long run and the heading "183, 187, 186, 182 then finally hitting the bulls eye for 185" game is on my nerves just a bit.

It got me missing the big compass from one of the SH3 mods (I'm not sure if it was GWX or MaGUI over GWX).

I saw a zoom level in TDW's options, but I'm nervous about monkeying with something I don't have a full grasp of, I think the zoom level was set at 200 but to me that number is just a random value right now, I'm not sure what it means, 200 pixels, 200 percent of the normal size? maybe bumping it up some amount so it is about 25% larger would work or will that cause problems with the other gauges. Note: I'm only thinking about touching zoom level (mouse in) and leaving the mouse out value alone.
