Hi all, I just thought it would be interesting to have a filter that computed moments of forces. It would require the same input parameters as the AeroForces filter plus an extra parameter to state the point with respect to which moments would be calculated, so in principle it should be extremely easy to implement. It's just a thought, but I think it would be valuable to many external aerodynamic applications. Cheers
Hi, This is a good point. I guess we do not currently have a place to include suggestions but only issues. I will ask the developer group what we might do about development suggestions. Obviously we are keen to encourage users to have a go at doing this themselves and so currently we are working on a developer guide to help this process. Cheers, Spencer.

Hi both, I think the issue tracker is good place for this, as it's not intended only for bugs etc, but can be used more generally. We have the 'feature request' or 'defect' labels that you can tag to an issue to indicate its purpose accordingly. However I do agree that it would be good to support users through appropriate documentation :) Cheers, Dave
