  You can extract the current SPAD.next internal datarefs in Settings->Application->Simulations->Xplane (Configure Button).
* Radio Panel Tuners: 
  - Each tuner can be configured to accellerate value changes, depending on how fast the tuner is turned. (inner and outer)
  - The sensitivity defines the timeout in ms how long a tuner turn will considered being a "speeddial". Default: 100ms , average delay is 16-32ms. 
    If the smae tuner is turned again within that timeout the speedvalue is increased up to a max of 3.
    The speedvalue is reset after is reached the max of 3 or the tuner has not been moved for "Tuner Idle Reset" ms (Device config) Default: 500ms
  - The Multiplier define the factor a "Change Data Value" is multiplied with according to the speedvalue. (Default 1,2,3)
  - To Enable the accelleration the "Change Data Value"-Event must have "Enable Accelleration" turned on AND the Operation must not be "Set".

* FIP: Add Filtering to loading dialog
* FIP: Add indexing control to loading dialog:
       If you create a file "GAUGE_NO_INDEX" in a folder, this folder will not be indexed or added to the folderlist on the left.
       If you create a file "GAUGE_FOLDER_INDEX" in a Top-Folder, all sub-folders of that folder will be added to the list on the left.
