XGauge at night?

Featured Replies

Is there a light switch for the XGauge? I've never been able to find one and yet I've also never seen another post complaining that you can't see it properly once the sun goes down, which leads me to the suspicion that I'm missing something rather basic. Cheers, SLuggy

Hi, No the gauge doesn't containing any lighting. It will look the same both day and night.

Thanks Jim, but once the sun goes down my XGauge is dark. The screen is OK, but the buttons can no longer been seen, because it's dark. Cheers, SLuggy

Hi, Have you turned on the panel lights for the plane?

Yes, but as I'm flying mostly PMDG 744, MD-11 and IFly 737 I'm wondering if the nonstandard panel lights don't affect the XGauge. Cheers, SLuggy
