FS9 744F Display transfer and brightness

Recommended Posts

Guest hangar744

Hi folks,a rather strange behavior I found concerning display brightness and display transfer.Turning down the brightness of a display and than transferring that to an other display will "take" the brightness properties along with it to its new location.Anyone can confirm this, please?regards,delcom

Delcom-Are you referring to "transferring" with the change-over switch, or by dragging a windowed display? In the latter it makes sense- same image, different location. In the former, I'm guessing if it occuring it is a FS limitation- the real aeroplane's individual CRT/LCDs are hardware controlled so the "rehostat"/brightness is based on the hardware selection- regardless of the data selection being displayed.I will test further and repost- interesting....hmmmmmmmBest-Carl F.

Yes- you are correct! I set up a scenario at dusk, ultra-bright PFD, very dim ND. Using the change-over switch I moved the PFD to the inboard display- and it remained ultra-bright. Again, this must be something to do with an FS limitation- I am almost certain that this does not happen in the real aeroplane, but perhaps you or Sam or Q could confirm further?Best-Carl F.

good day,slight misunderstanding there. My question is: are we all experiencing this CRT/LCD "brightness and transfer" issue?Carl said yes...anyone else?First i thought it was only my own setup messed up. thanks folks,delcom
