AxisAndOhs new version 2.08 released

Hello @ll,

AAO 2.08 has been released today.

This version is mostly about stability and bugfixes. A lot has changed under the hood concerning the handling of controller events.

here is the change log:

Significant changes:

• The input event processing logic has been redesigned, so it works the same for all input devices.
• The startup and connection sequence of the app has been redesigned. The app will now try to wait until the aircraft has finished loading before it establishes the various data connections. This is to avoid problems with certain addon aircraft that don't like it if LVars are assigned too early in the process.

Individual changes:

• Change: Scripts: The output of the "Test" button is always copied to the clipboard, so you can Ctrl&V it into a text editor
• Change: MSFS: AAO tries to match aircraft liveries to existing profiles for this particular aircraft addon
• Change: the current simulator flight plan can be copied to the clipboard (Menu item in "Extras").
• Change: static Macros can be used in the Desktop/WebFIP logic
• Change: Local variables will retain their values when 
• Change: MIDI Out now supports program change events
• Change: it is possible now to access string variables in the WebAPI (for example to show the call sign on the StreamDeck)
• Change: When assigning templates you now have the choice of what to merge exactly (so only parts of a template can be loaded into the current config)
• Change: Saitek Panels: all controls now fully event based, MIDI mode can be configured for individual aircraft now, option to override the output variabls in MIDI mode
• Change: Add/Change button dialogs: input value boxes now unlimited in range (to accomodate PMDG DC-6 ROTOR_BRAKE event triggers)
• Change: Added startup error device file to catch instances where the app would not start fully when incompatible devices are connected.
• Bugfix: Blacklisting MIDI devices crashed the app
• Bugfix: Add/Change Button dialogs had trouble handling gamepads
• Bugfix: Combo Buttons were only working when pressed before the actual button
• Bugfix: Long/short clicks were duplicating
• Bugfix: Local variables were not retaining their values when the app recovered from a SimConnect crash
• Bugfix: custom variable import used incorrect headers
• Bugfix: SOUND took precedence over everything else in scripts
• Bugfix: Global automated script dialogs not handling duplicates correctly
