Unfortunately mouse wheel does not work on Android-SkyDemon (while drag & drop by mouse works). 

This means there is not possibility to use a stick remote control for operating SkyDemon like it is possible for XCSoar and all the others.

And also keyboard shortcuts do not work in Android SkyDemon being rational for stick remote control to work.

How many Android tablets do you think have either a keyboard or a mouse wheel? I've never even seen one, and we certainly don't have one in the office. It's not something we have ever (until now) experienced a request from a customer for.

Thanks Tim. You are completely right nobody uses a keyboard in an aircraft for SkyDemon.

Nevertheless keyboard shortcuts are very important in small aircraft when using tools like SkyDemon because when shortcuts are implemented like in e.g. XCSoar you can use stick remote control SkyDemon because the buttons on the top of the stick are nothing else than a keyboard (but only with 5 buttons). And nobody would disagree that controlling a navigation app by the buttons of a stick is much better than by touch on the navigation screen.

As it is so easy to make shortcuts work in an Android-App my question is if SkyDemon can implement Shortcuts. Neither more nor less. 

Is that in your eyes an understandable explanation for this feature request?
