NEWS! - Plugin Updated : AviTab 0.0.5 Browser by TheRamon
One of the greatest tools in X-Plane is the AviTab Tablet. It is universally accepted, and wildly used throughout the Simulator. Here is an extra addon that gives the AviTab more functionality by inserting a "Browser" in the tablet, it has also been updated to v0.0.5.
You simply download and insert the avitab-browser-0.0.5-XP12 file and add it into your X-Plane/Resources/Plugins folder (The original AviTab Plugin must also be present).
On startup you now have in AviTab an extra icon called "Browser", just click on it, and yes you have instant access to the World-Wide-Web.
It really works fine, but a couple of notes. You need to adjust the tablets screen a little darker, as the browser is brighter than the other AviTab options, second, is that scrolling around the pages is a little slow, either by the navigation bars or by the scroll wheel, otherwise it is very good and very handy if you require information in flight, well worth added into your toolbox.
This is an update to v0.0.5, the update includes new features;
A few features of the plugin:
Configurable using .ini file
Custom homepage
A statusbar integration with up to five handy 'hotkey' websites
Flightplan downloading from SimBrief directly to Output/FMS Plans
Local browser cache (for login credentials, cookies and stuff)
Geolocation support (your location comes from the sim, of course)
Works with EVERY AviTab airplane or helicopter
Handy here is that you can now download flightplans plans directly from SimBrief to your Output/FMS folder via the tablet.
What's New in Version 0.0.5
Released
The plugin is now available on Linux (XP12), Mac and Windows.
Added a new configuration value: scroll_speed
Added a new configuration value: user_agent
The tablet will now dim automatically with AviTab's brightness controls
Improved the browser's start-up time and responsiveness
Fixed an issue where certain artifacts would occur when drawing shapes
Fixed an issue where Simbrief (or any Cloudflare protected site) was bringing the browser into an infinite loop
It is all very good, and a great addition to your cockpit toolkit. Just download from the X-Plane.Org
The AviTab Browser by TheRamon is now available for download from the X-Plane.Org here.
