They are too small and not readable what can be done about this is there are way to make them clearer or more focused?p.s. I'm new to the forums and i just purchased the pmdg and I feel really lost it seems so complicated.

What resolution are you using? You should try to run close as you can of the native resolution of the panel. 1280x960 would be the best bet.

Is that the native resolution of the panel?I am running at 1600x1200. Better or worse?BR,Frank

Frank,I am running at 1600 x 1200, but that's because my LCD native resolution is 1600 x 1200. I did read that the PMDG panel was desiged in 1280 x 960, but with my LCD screen it all gets fuzzy. Plus the rest of the sim looks so much better at the higher res anyway. Bottom line, I have no issues with the PMDG panel at 1600 x 1200. Looks amazing as far as I am concerned.Regards,Glenn Harrall

If so you can change to the PFD/ND style through the in game PMDG/STYLES menu. You can use the ZOOM panel by pressing Z. You can lower your resolution to 1024x768 (if you have a monitor that supports this i.e. CRT or good LCD that scales without too much distortion) Or for 19.95 you can be the very first customer to purchase my all new fs20004 MaGnofyer 2000! Yes point & click anything in FS to 1000X it's normal size! Ok JK lol...Best Wishes,[h4]Randy J. Smith[/h4]http://www.rawbw.com/~bdoolin/shinault/southparkcartmad.gif[h3]I WANT MY 747![/h3]Caution!

I agree, Glenn, the gauges look fantastic.The only thing I noticed is that, even at this resolution there are some (slight) jaggies on the glareshield(the bit that slopes) and the vertical of the window frame in the middle. Can these be eliminated? I'm using an ATI Radeon 9800 128Mb video card.BR,Frank

Frank,I have the jaggies on the glareshield too. Nothing you can do about it as far as I know. (also have 9800 Pro)Regards,Glenn Harrall
