is there a way to enlarge the area that is shaded? Currently a radius of 10 km is shaded. That is too small to see whether you are flying into the correct valley.
And the shading does not work when using a custom base map. Is it possible to render the topography in front of the base map as well? If not, it would be useful to be able to temporarily disable or make a custom base map transparent.
Hello Maik,
Many thanks for your contribution and, first of all, a Happy New Year.
A larger radius is on my to‑do list. The limitation to 10 km is partly due to performance. We first needed to gather experience with various devices. But I think it’s safe to say that we’ll increase the “visibility” accordingly
The data for the terrain shading comes from the base map. Therefore the order of the layers is fixed here and unfortunately cannot be changed easily.
I will, however, think about whether this can be implemented with a third‑party map. If not, then we’ll do it as you suggested and add a simple way to temporarily hide the third‑party map. That’s a good idea
