I know from where this problem comes. It's related to the [G3F I639] entry in the Page Layout.ini file. In fact the "New Val" zone ([G3F I643]), which define where to click to set the new course is define with a width of 12 pixel, and the parent, which defines the global zone is 100 pixel wide.
BUT, for a round dial with a rotating needle, the size must be an odd number of pixel, to enabled a "central" pixel which is used as pivot point.
If not the case, the needle is always offset from one pixel, thus the inacurracy of the click.
When the dial is just here to show a feedback of some technical data of the sub, it has absolutely no impact, neither when the area where to give the input doesn't require an absolute precision.
But for a compass, it's mandatory.
I tried to tweak some values in the Page layout.ini file, but unfortunately with no succes yet.

I think you can see them now. But they are uploaded on Imageshack. Still investigating.....

It's not working for me
I have clicked the color box and nothing changed.. still old color which was chosen via the patcher..

Cool idea
Yes, please, TDW

TDW, I forgot to ask - is it OK that the date on DMs is 01.01.0001?

Excellent idea for radio and messages...
Funny thing is i was about to ask same thing, but was hesitating because i know TDW is always very busy fixing more important stuff

Anyway, while we are there, and if it's not too much demanding, i'd rather see a ship's journal more looking like NewUIs identifying manual ...or like Reaper's manual...with a different kind of font, more looking like a hand writing!

SH5 fonts are set in data\Menu\Fonts. There is not handwiriting font among the preset onesì but, if required, adding a new font is an easy though boring task

Was thinking something like that for ship's journal:

Easy enough to take the manual cover, but to import typing lines in it is over my capacities...again

Already here : chalk font, even better FPArhi24 font.

Just be sure to do in this font Cyrillic characters, guys
I was tired pick up the font in the last time when DrJones decided to play around with fonts

Sorry for the question, i know that this thread is full of them but i've made a mess with charts, this afternoon all was good but then the first problem emerged: i tried to add the AOB slide ruller to my mods but when i started the game i was unable to find it over the speed conversion tables, but that was ok, no problem.
Now when i start the game and i click on charts button on the middle right only the recognition manual shows up, nothing else (also no interface for charts choice). I tried to reinstall all the mods that i have but no problem solved...

if you need i've this mods enabled

Is the Staidometer disabled with The patcher enabled, manuel targeting enforced? If so what are (besides four bearing) some good methods to derermine range?

Try to remove all TDWDraggable files from your root game's folder.. see what's happen
