Hi All,I changed the zoom setting in all my views and save the flight. On return, only the forward view has been saved.Does anybody know how to save the other 8 views? (edit cfg??)Thanks and Regards,AL

Hi Al,Yes go to your aircraft panel.cfg and there under views you change all the zoom settings or add them in, if none is listed.I have also change all my direction settings to view the ground better. Here are my panel view settings for the PMDG 737:[VIEWS]VIEW_FORWARD_WINDOWS=20,21,22,23VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=4.75,0,0.0,0,0.0VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_WINDOWS=30VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_DIR=8.0,0.0,30.0VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_RIGHT_WINDOWS=34VIEW_RIGHT_DIR=5.5,0.0,90.0VIEW_RIGHT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_WINDOWS=35VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_DIR=5.5,0.0,135.0VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_REAR_WINDOWS=36VIEW_REAR_LEFT_WINDOWS=33VIEW_REAR_LEFT_DIR=6.5,0.0,-135.0VIEW_REAR_LEFT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_LEFT_WINDOWS=32VIEW_LEFT_DIR=6.5,0.0,-90.0VIEW_LEFT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_WINDOWS=31VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_DIR=7.0,0.0,-30VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_ZOOM=1.00VIEW_DOWN_WINDOWS=37VIEW_DOWN_DIR=11.0, 0.0, 0.0 Hope this helpsBob

 

Bob,Thnx.But I dont seem to be successful.I am using Baron 58 and want all views @ 0.75, when I follow your instructions for zoom command only in the PANEL.CFG file in the Barons PANEL FOLDER...nothing seems to change.Do you know what I'm doing wrong....Cheers,Alan

With the changes made to the config file try changing to another plane and back to the Baron. See if that helps.

Alan,After you made those changes to the aircraft's panel.cfg did you make the changes inside of FS also? If you did, save the flight situation with those changes. At this point, the Baron should come back with those .75 zoom settings.Bob

 

Bob,Thanks again, but your suggestion doesn't work for me.One point you may answer is where in the a/c CFG does the text go...ie under what heading?Cheers..AL

There has to be a {views} heading to all those views settings. Fine if it's already there but I would be sure in that case not to have 2 duplicate lines even if the figures differ. The brackets on {views} must be square ones, not as I have written here as it is not possible to write square brackets in these messages.
