It looks nice, and if you provide the ini file, I'll add it to the templates, but the default should be for the most-common setup:
6 channels and no telemetry

I agree, it's overladen layout. It's only example of objects placement with most controls on the screen. I will send ini file later today, as soon as I return to home.

I updated the download page with the most recent devo12 code. I also included rbe's RTC code (though it will only be supported by the devo12). The code still needs some cleanup, and the configuration page is not accessible yet, but the 'Clock' is available to show on the main page in any small-box or big-box

Now the DEVO 12 has only 3 configurable timers.
Is it an effect of the RTC feature, or just a mergeing mistake?

What does it mean? And emulator eventually exit at translated USB page.



Also, will be nice do not refresh values that not changed on time for refresh (date, telemetry values and so on). If 'new value' = 'old value' then do not refresh. At that case values will not flicker, and it will reduce resource consumption.

The RTC code does need some more work as I mentioned. I added a configuration page and fixed the number of timers (there should be 4 timers plus the clock)
rbe had the code set to not refresh if there was no change. However I didn't understand what his code was doing so I removed it until I can understand it better.

Why 'Trimmer' object has 1-7 trim, but hasn't 'None'? It cann't be hidden, deleted only.

Good catch. I fixed it. This also broke all ini files you guys have done. make sure to update the trim 'source' on any you want to keep.

Would it be possible to have the option to change a box in the list from a small-box to a big-box and vice versa? This would save time if you simply wanted to have a bigger box display where a small box is. As it is now you will have to delet the small box and replace it with a big box from scratch, which also may caues the box list in edit page to get confusing.

It would not be technically hard, though there are several corner-cases to deal with. For instance if the object was too close to the edge, we'd need to recompute the coordinates and move it.
In the end, I'm just not going to do it though. I don't think many people will spend hours playing around with the layout.
The better solution, would be to write a Java app to let you design GUIs and give you full flexibility for things like this. Not very high on my list though.

Yes, the default template is broken too...

There are only 3 timers. At config page I can select Timer1 and Timer2 only.

In the middle, third box from top = CH1

I've fixed several more timer/rtc related bugs, and added the ability to see the date as well as the time on the front page.
I also fixed the trims in the template for all Tx types.
I fixed the usb page for the Russians as well.

I think that is everything that has been reported. The RTC stuff ended up being pretty invasive, so there may still be a few more issues with it, but hopefully it is almost there now.

Kdean: (a) I haven't yet released a new binary with the fixes I mentioned, and (b) you can just update the ini file adding 1 to each of the trims in the last value. I.e. change:
V-trim=131,75,0
to
V-trim=131,75,1
