Model file contaminated by navigating to a screen

The attached file, model10.ini works correctly in my Devo 6.

However, if I click on the model icon, navigate to the trims page and then exit the trims page without changing anything, the trims stop working properly.

The second attachment, model10(2).ini is the same model downloaded from the transmitter after the trims page visit.

The first file shows trim steps of 0, but the second file shows the steps have been changed to 193.

The same thing happens in the emulator.

Did you report this and the steps to duplicate it on PB's bitbucket repository?

No because I am not sure if it's a bug or not. Should an issue be reported if if only might be a bug?

Another model didn't exhibit the same behavior.

Okay, I just tried this on the latest code emu_devo6.exe and cannot duplicate it. Here are the steps I used:

1. Started the emulator (last model loaded, I test with models 31-40)
2. Clicked on icon
3. Right arrow 4 times to Trims
4. Click EXIT
5. Turn off TX (which saves current changes)

No difference in model32.ini. Did I miss a step?

It might be the model I started with that has a problem. That's what I'm unsure of. Can you try it with my model 10?

There must be some special cases, when I load your model10.ini with 0 as the step, it is automatically changed to 193 which the GUI lists as Momentary, if I select Toggle the number is 192 and if I select On/Off the number is 191.

I am assuming since the lowest actual value is 0.1 and it is set to 0 Deviation then just makes it the highest allowable value, in this case 193 which equals Momentary. This assumes a circular list.

If you remove the step=??? it will go back to the default 0.1. So it likely isn't a bug, maybe just a program anomaly.

The use of On/Off, Toggle and Momentary is not documented so I don't know what they do. If anyone does and can create a paragraph or two explaining it's use we could ask PB to add it to section 8.5 Trims in the manual.

Okay, I found a forum post from July 2013 explaining this usage:

Maybe my problem was having "step=0". I don't see how the program would save a value like that in the ini file. The model10.ini file was from an older version (v3.? I believe)and when loaded into 4.01, I couldn't see a way to get the trims to work as normal trims through the GUI.

I see how the higher numbers 191, etc. work as parameter values for the button actions; Thanks for explaining that.

Yes, model10.ini is the original file from an older version (3.?). When I load that into the emu, navigate to the trims page, exit the trims page, then quit and save the model, it becomes the file model10(2).ini which Windows renamed for me because of the duplicate (original) file. (The parenthesis in the name didn't make it from my Win desktop through to the upload for some reason.)
