Describe the Helios Issue

A clear and concise description of what the bug is, when it started to happen and any recent changes.

Steps to Reproduce the problem

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Go to F/A-18C JDAM Training in ED
  2. Follow training and when coordinates are entered in the UFC, the Helios version will be incomplete with an ellipsis at the end of the display.

Expected behavior

Toolbox version of the F/A-18C UFC should match the contents of the in-cockpit scratchpad.

Temporary fix is to reduce the height of the UFC by a few pixels while keeping the width constant.

Observed during recreation, the cuing bar on the options display is sometimes solid. This probably means that the translation in the F/A-18C driver or the conversion string in the scratchpad needs adjustment.

Looks like ED changed the character they used for the cueing indicator to a | so this has now been added to the mapping that relates to the : in the display.
