April 28, 200917 yr I have just recently noticed (overnight really) that all digital readouts (i.e. autopilot display windows, radio frequency displays) have gone blank on almost all of my add on aircraft. I notice this on the CLS 747, Wilco 737 and PMDG 747F and maybe others I am yet to check. I am sure this is some kind of guage issue but seeing this across many different developers is very weird. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Bucslax

There should also be a copy of that font in your Windows/Fonts folder.It is always possible that it has become corrupted so you might try restoring it from Disk 1, Game1.cab. Any file in a .cab can be extracted using Winzip or other good zipping program.Perhaps the suggestion by Hugo would work but I fail to see the correlation between having tooltips active (or inactive) and the digital display in a gauge.Keep us posted!
April 28, 200917 yr I I have always had that box checked, it doesnt seem to be the issue. Heres some pics of what im talking about.
April 28, 200917 yr Thanks Opa,I think i might just uninstall and reinstall the whole thing. :( It does seem if something has become corrupted because I have the font quartz in the fonts folder. I hope this works.Thanks guys for all the help
April 28, 200917 yr Simple question, do you have the avionics master switch turned on?Joe The best gift you can give your children is your time.
April 28, 200917 yr Weird. How about this: have you installed any guages lately? Try uninstalling the gauges you installed last, maybe that will help...
