February 9, 201115 yr Hello;I am using the PMDG 600/700/800/900 series 737 aircraft. I use 2D panels in FS9When looking through the main front window the viewpoint seems to be too low. This is especially evident on landing when I often have to alter the eye view placement to see the end of the runway.I want to alter the file so that the viewpoint of the main front window is a little higher. I can always adjust this in flight by the eye placement feature in FS9, but it would be good to have the placement set by default.Can someone tell me which lines I need to edit in the CFG file to achieve this?There was a post regarding this some years ago, but a search has failed to locate it and I was foolish enough not to keep a copy. I realize that this is NOT the PMDG forum, however, as this aircraft is widely used I thought it pertinent to post hereThank you. I hope someone can help me.

Best, WilloW (Iain)If I remember correctly,go into your panel.cfg and search for the lien VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=X,Y,Z. X is the value that change the head up/down which is the one you are looking for Hoang Le i7 13700k - Sapphire Nitro+ AMD RX 7900 XT - Asus TUF Z790 PLUS D4 - Gskill Trident 32GB DDR4-3600 LG 34GP63A-B Ultrawide - ASUS VG259QM MSFS2020

X is the value that change the head up/down which is the one you are looking forThanks for the really fast reply....I'll try what you suggest and see how we do. I have a backup of the .cfg file so not that much can go terribly wrong. Best, WilloW WilloW (YMHB) flaps2approach.comB737-800 simulator
