ACTIVE Proposal for FTX Central

[Vora]

After explaining for the umpteenth time in other forums that you should not activate "Europe" when testing OpenLC Europe over Germany I have a humble proposal for a small change in FTX Central.

Would it be doable to alter the entries like that:

 

FTX Global     FTX Regions        FTX Regions        FTX Regions

                          Oceania           North America           Europe

 

Other possible solutions would be to use "FTX OC Regions", "FTX NA Regions" and  "FTX EU Regions" as people who bought an FTX region will know what those entries mean. Different icons maybe? In its current format FTX Central is just too confusing for many new users.

 

Please bear in mind that with the FTX Global product line you do reach new customers who may not have the language skills to understand Rob's wonderful Definitive Guide. Many were never confronted with the product range of FTX regions. So it is totally normal to them to choose "Europe" when flying over France, Italy, Germany etc.

 

Again, just a humble proposal.

We are in the middle of re-writing a brand new FTX Central app and renaming regions is definitely on the agenda.

Good stuff.

Thanks for the quick response.

If there's any chance it can auto-sort the OpenLC files down the way Holger has advised some who've had overlap issues, that'd be great, too!

I think that's a good idea John. I don't have a problem. But it seems so many new people don't understand that Europe, for now, is only the British Isles.
