January 1, 200620 yr Hi all,I'm a new 744 pilot,and I'm having some trouble. Some of the display numbers are tool large and thus make reading difficult. Can anyone provide any suggestions?In the pic attached:FMA- VNAV PT instead of PTHALT TAPE- "3" partially obscured ona alt readout "9" totally invisible in target altitudeEICAS- N1 Tape obscures EGT digital readouthttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/137354.jpg
January 1, 200620 yr HiI notice your squares are rectangles and your circles are elipses ! May have something to do with your problem. Suggest you try using a ratio which gives a correct Horizontal/Vertical ratio. On reflection I don't see how this can be affecting fonts but you will get a non distorted image.ken ellis

That worked. But why would MORE dots per inch cause this effect.
January 2, 200620 yr My box says Normal(96) and Large(120) If it was on large and you set it to normal with would make sense. If your on some setup where it has the custom box selected or for some other reason the number was lower than 96 the Numbers may be slightly deformed (in this case too big) as shown in the picture... or at least i think.
