Hello All I have been playing with the free Airline seating demo file from SeedCode. I think this is great and I'm looking to modify it in a way that allows for multiple aircraft configurations, but I'm hitting major snags. For the record, this is just a personal project and in no way is being distributed or sold. If you look at the attached file, they've used repeating fields to create the seat map. The repetition is captured and turned into a seat assignment. Thing is, the seat map used in their file in no way mimics a real-world commercial aircraft and there doesn't seem to be a universal way to map seats among multiple variations of aircraft configurations w…
