Thanks, Steve. Guess I shouldn't be holding my breath for that next release :-)!

AviSteve, we had discussed two issues related to Screen Brightness in the last few months - one where there is a "cliff" when one goes from 52 to 48% when adjusting brightness manually and the other one where the manual screen brightness in a particular profile is not saved across power cycles. I can understand that the second one may be a design choice but I think the first one is a bug - has that been resolved in 10.3.1.2?

Thanks.
Both of those behaviors are per original design of the IFD and have been there since 10.0.  The LCD has a day/night mode and the "cliff" was there to provide more resolution at each end of the scale.

Nevertheless, we have modified the design to increase the number of brightness levels to 100 instead of 25 and make the brightness along the scale continuous, though not linear.  We have also modified the design to save the last selected brightness level, but only to a specific minimum.  We intentionally kept the changes in 10.3.1.2 to a small number of bug fixes.  That's why the new brightness behavior was not included.  They are scheduled for inclusion in the next release.

We fixed it by having you disable enroute VNAV.  I'm not sure if you saw this, but skitheo made an interesting, related post this afternoon.

Release 10.3.1.2 is primarily a bug fix release for 10.3.0.2.  Here are the release notes:

  • Fixed issue regarding VHF frequencies not persisting across power cycles
  • Fixed issue with secondary standby frequency selection timing out after 20 seconds, reverting back to the #1 standby
  • Fixed issue that caused an IFD reset when RF legs are disabled, an approach is selected in the dropdown, and every enroute transition to that approach contains an RF leg
  • Fixed issue that caused visual approach extended runway centerline to not be displayed on devices driven by GAMA 429 (e.g. EX5000, Aspen)
  • Fixed Exit Hold button so that it will appear when a hold immediately precedes an arrival or approach starting at the hold fix
  • Fixed issue that caused VSR to not be computed when the next altitude constraint is on a leg that is part of a departure
  • Fixed issue where the IFD outputs the selected altitude label even if enroute VNAV is disabled.  With this fix, disabling enroute VNAV will prevent the IFD from overriding the selected altitude on some autopilots (e.g. TruTrak).
  • Fixed enroute VNAV deviation scaling issues for display on a G5 (see SIL 606-00192-000).
  • Fixed issue that caused Direct-to entry to be cancelled when using keyboard convenience mode.
  • Fixed issue that caused some IFDs with multi-engines enabled to continue to show fuel flow / quantity in single engine format
