I pointed that out and Wayne is looking at changing it. I suggested the cmd
sequence for the 2800 be:
S
A
<direction>
so it issues a stop cmd first in case its currently rotating..
Also I'd like to see some sort of key mapping for:
rotate to short path (eg: ALT-R)
rotate to long path (shift-alt-R)
tell rotator to stop (ctrl-shift-alt-R)
or at least menu items so one can use a macro pkg and map the menu items to
keys as desirable;
