Hello, I'm testing SD for android  version 3.16.3.21673 and I want to cycle between route waypoints while I'm flying, I mean. I have a route with waypoints A,B,C,D and E. I'm in the leg from A to B and I want to go to D. I know I can tap on the magnifier and search for D. That's ok but when I'm about to reach D, I want to go to B. If I tap on the magnifier, B isn't there.
On other program I have as moving map, I can tap on Next/Prev buton and that change my destination waypoint. That is the behavior I'm looking for on SD.

Thanks in advance.

That behaviour doesn't exist in SkyDemon. If you want to alter your planned route you can do so, by rubber-banding or by taking a shortcut or by routing directly to any waypoint. What you're describing - setting the next waypoint to something other than the waypoint at the end of the leg you're navigating - isn't possible in SkyDemon.


I see. Has anybody asked this before? I mean, VFR flying should be very flexible, cyrcling between your route waypoints should be something not very weird for a VFR pilot in fact, it can be done on other vfr moving map software. Think about it, just two buttons , Next/Prev.
