In the new vector airfield plates in V3.3 on both PC and Android (SkyDemon plates - not AIP or Pooleys plates) please make the hold positions and hold numbers visible at much lower zoom levels so that when taxying around an airfield we don't have to be zoomed right in to find a hold. If requested to 'taxi to hold alpha one' then at he moment I have to zoom in to see the hold info and then pan around the whole airfield to find the one I need by which time my current position is now off the screen.

See attached screenshot (taken from PC) where even zoomed in this far hold numbers are not visible.

Looks like we need to improve the highlighting of those objects in our Android version. In iOS it's fine; the code must not have been ported across correctly.
This feature is still heavily under development and may be cancelled altogether. We have mapped a few UK airfields to gauge reception only.


Please don't cancel this feature it's great - just needs some more development IMHO.
