Holding the MENU button does still work.
Assuming you are using a "7-way switch encoder", I find if you press the button with your thumb, you can then rotate the encoder wheel just by rotating your thumb. In this mode, you don't need many clicks on the wheel to change a value a lot (20 steps per click).
Yeah, we already had that by holding the menu button as well. I can't really press and rotate the wheel with my thumb. At some point the button stops making contact and i mess everything
On my 9XT is quite ok because the wheel rotates easily, but on both my Ar9x radios it doesn't, so I really have to use the menu button.
Using other styles of encoder (X7, X9E, Horus and the type I have on my SKY board) may be easier.
My 9XR-PRO also has one of those encoders that look like a pot.. This one is OK.
No, I don't have double click on the menu button, I've added it to the encoder mainly for use when you don't have a MENU button!
I understand, but perhaps better keep the way the radio operates consistent?? For example, you can change between GVARS and numbers with a double click of the encoder button, but also with pressing the menu button long? Hmmmm, wouldn't it be better if it used the same input type (double click) for for the encoder button, as well as the menu button? I find that logical and less confusing..
Just my 2 cents of course..
