Bert
March 28, 201115 yr Author The autopilot is incomplete... known problem.I've got a replacement if you need it before Carenado releases a patch.Not sure what is causing the other issues.. you can try a re-install..Tried a re-install, just the same.hope this is not a OS problem ie 'XP pro' as when first shown on Carenado site xp was only added later as a compatible os it was then and I decided to purchase.many thanks for your offer and help, I will wait to see what the patch will sort out.bob

March 28, 201115 yr Bob, can you move that black area? When you click on it, is there a white border round the black part? If so, have a look at your panel.cfg and check the line I've boldened. It ought to read the same as the last line (bold italics) Hope that helps.[Window01]Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=450,330position=0visible=0zorder=8ident=GPS_PANELgauge00=CarenadoG430!GNS430_nc1, 0,0,450,330 The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
March 28, 201115 yr I think the problem may be elsewhere:In the panel.cfg file, change[Default View]X=0Y=0SIZE_X=8191SIZE_Y=3743toSIZE_Y=6144or, second option://[Default View]//X=0//Y=0//SIZE_X=8191//SIZE_Y=3743 Bert
March 28, 201115 yr Just a thought. :smile:My default view is:[Default View]X=0Y=0SIZE_X=8191SIZE_Y=3743Odd eh? The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
March 28, 201115 yr Just a thought. :smile:My default view is:[Default View]X=0Y=0SIZE_X=8191SIZE_Y=3743Odd eh?Ron, that is indeed what Carenado specified. But technically speaking,that is incorrect if you want a full screen to display :( Why it works OK on some systems and not on others, I do not know.mine's a bit different?1680x1050Onebob, what version of FSX do you run?SP1, SP2, or Acceleration?Bob, can you move that black area? When you click on it, is there a white border round the black part? If so, have a look at your panel.cfg and check the line I've boldened. Ron, how come you have the GPS popup in Window01?The Baron that I've got, has it in Window00. Bert

Bert, changing the Y value from 3743 to 6144 did the jobRon my gps is in window 00 like bert'sjust to prove itthanks
March 28, 201115 yr Tada! Great stuff. :( Ron, how come you have the GPS popup in Window01?The Baron that I've got, has it in Window00.Ahah! I change all my aircraft so that GPS is on Shift+2 which I also have a macro on my Logitech G15 keyboard. So, one stab = GPS whichever plane. :( The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
March 28, 201115 yr Author Tada! Great stuff. :(Thanks Ronby the way, Bert indicated that clicking on the VC panel gps brought it up in a pop up window ( Like the F33 bonanza)does that work for you also.bob
