I've been working on a RADAR/Map display. Can I infer from other threads that this:

<CustomDrawParam id="LayerVORs" Name="LayerVORs"><Value>(L:LayerVORs) 0 > </Value></CustomDrawParam>

Is the same as this:

<LayerVORs>(L:LayerVORs) 0 > </LayerVORs>

I haven't been able to even display the RADAR yet and the sheer number of all these flags makes it confusing to find errant code. Thanks...Don

Don, I can really see how you could interpret that, but FSX is way, way more explicit than FS9 when it comes to XML. FS9 had a similar tag name set. So,, No donot do it.Get it to work first, then modify one step at a time.Try loading into Internet Explorer once. IExplorer will give you the simple syntax errors with a possible line # ( depending on system setup ) Roman

Thanks, RomanI rec'd no syntax errors in IE8. After fiddling with the code last night I got the thing to display. At least now I can check my mouse events. I'm planning on trying to incorporate Jan's transparency technique and the custom symbols after I get my L:vars sorted out.Thanks again...Don
