Hello all, as always I will keep this report brief, as we know on the HSD the blue Link16 flight members symbols are 33% larger than the regular green donor symbols, but the PDLT octagon around them is not. This makes selecting a PDLT on flight members difficult, as you cannot see the octagon clearly and determine if the PDLT has been created. Here are some examples:
 

No problems with green donor symbols, the PDLT is easily noticed:

Visibility issues with blue flight members, the PDLT octagon is hard to spot, as it's not 33% enlarged as the rest of the blue symbol:

As you can see, even fully zoomed in, the octagon is still hard to spot. Further zoomed out it's basically impossible to tell. This can be easily fixed if the octagon would be 33% larger than usual if it's being placed over a flight member.

As a sidenote, I also noticed is that the TMS up action is not registered until you are well within the symbol area with the cursor, my guess is that the 33% enlargement of the blue symbol didn't also enlarge the TMS Up trigger zone for the PDLT, again, something easy to fix.

Thanks and have an easy week.

For the images above, try to spot which flight member has a PDLT on it. As you can see, it becomes impossible to discern, which breaks the purpose of the 33% enlargement of the flight member PPLI symbols - to aid the pilot in reading the symbol better.
