Little white box

Featured Replies

Any thoughts on what its doing there? Somebody mentioned hovering the mouse over it bumps fps which it does funnily enough but what is it??Its on the top left of the screen...do you have the little white box?

Yeah at the top left hand corner very small if windows is hanging it appears then goes again when you gain full control...Steve

I have the little square box in full screen, yes fps increases +- 3, 5. I have the same result when the mouse is on the second screen (2 screens config)Regards,Richard Portier

this has been mention before if you put your mouse in the box you increase your fps so they they say cant remember offhand what it is now since cant remember too may drinks at the moment, but if u do a search for it u will find it, think its the light sensor but i could be wrong

This is where i park my pointer when flying. This one has been discussed many times as another one of those FSX anomalies.

I believe the chap who said it was the light sensor for the panel is correct. I seem to remember someone posting a cfg change that could remove it but I hardly notice anymore.

I would hesitate before doing that. If the pmdg team put it there it probably serves an important purpose & removing it could cause issues elsewhere. Your overhead backlighting may quit working or stay too dim/bright...

yes ryan has stated this in an earlier post about this back light dont remove it as you have stated it could cause problems in other areas
