Apologies if this has been addressed, but I'd like to be able to define a waypoint in a 'VORradDME' format. e.g. ABC275010 = ABC VOR, 275 radial, 10 DME. Is there a way to do this in Avare?

Not yet, but in the list of things to do. Should not be hard. Plus holds.

Minus hold, this will be in release 3.5.5.

In search enter: ABC275010 = ABC VOR, 275 radial, 10 DME. You will also be able to give fixes in place of VOR.

When flying IFR this will be very helpful, having the capability to plan based on fixes will be great
When is the eta for release?

Bug report (version 5.3.6):
While setting up a hypothetical flight plan, I find the data format for off-fix waypoints to be opposite of off-VOR waypoints.

For VORs it's VORradDME (ABC180012 = ABC, 180 radial, 12 miles DME)
This is the format I expect.

But for fixes it appears to be FIXABDMErad (ABCDE180012 = ABCDE, 180 miles DME, 012 radial)
This is not the format I expect.

Request that the off-fix data format match the off-VOR data format (PLACE-radial-distance)

Thanks.
