Description

1. Add Height Above Ellipsoid HAE to banner (HAE - hMSL = 'sep')
2. Significant improvements to console refresh performance
3. Add double-click to copy contents of console to clipboard
4. Scatter Plot widget enhanced to improve precision and add functionality:

   • Range adjustable from 1 cm to 5 km radius in increments of 1, 2, 5.

   • Plot centered on either cumulative Average position or Fixed reference position (if entered and valid).

   • Autorange facility to automatically adjust range to accommodate all plotted points.

   • Update interval can be selected from 1 to 100 (e.g. 5 means update every 5th navigation solution) - allows longer survey durations.

   • Right-click to set fixed reference point to current cursor position.

   • Double-click to clear all points (existing functionality).

   • Standard deviation of lat/lon displayed alongside average (if statistics package available) - updated every 10th point.

   • Improved scaling of plot fonts at full screen.

   • Settings can be saved to json configuration file via File..Save Configuration provided widget is visible at the time.

   • Remove 'no fix, no plot' constraint so will plot any incoming lat/lon regardless of fix status (e.g, useful if you're only receiving NAV-HPPOSLLH messages, which do not contain an explicit fix status attribute).
