After reinstalling my PMDG-737 I encounter a weird problem ( see attachement )

When the aircraft is on the rwy ready for take of I cannot see the other end of the runway.

I assume it has something to do with the settings but after trying all kind of options

without success I decided to ask this Forum.

 

Thank

Please note: the following response is intended to be humorous.

 

I see what the problem is, you'v got the 2D cockpit up. You can fix this by pressing the letter "A" on your keyboard.

To look around press spacebar and move the mouse around while holding spacebar down. Mouse scroll wheel can be used to zoom in and out.

 

 

Otherwise, got no idea.

The PMDG NGX was built with the VC being the dominant cockpit, instead of the 2D.

you can change the view - just use the spacebar and mouse to move the view up a bit and let go.

 

The VC is much better than the 2d cockpit though...

Try reading the introduction manual your solution is there for  you to find,(page 13  hint)  you say you taking off?   no flight plan loaded. tcas off, flaps set wrong, auto brakes not  set  to rto  these are a few things wrong with you set up for  takeoff.

Dont think so - looks like he just landed - speedbrakes deployed and LAND 3 on PFD - have a closer look next time before judging

Aircraft state seems irrelevant to the question asked. Silly response indeed.

i think the solution was either to press the (minus key) or (shift and backspace together).. or something like that, dont remember

Didn't  you read my post, op post said he was ready for  take off,  which I was only referring he  had  the settings  set wrong  for takeoff that's all.

 

Most likely case he hasn't got the WideViewAspect=true set in his  fsx.cfg  display section or  he has used the zoom in key for some reason

 

Using  the back space key or  using the space bar and mouse wont  work since he is in 2d  mode if he were in 3d  than yes

To the OP: Wasn´t that a problem with the release version (before all the hotfixes and servicepacks)? In other words: is it the latest and up-to-date version you´re running?

I searched Google ("adjust 2d fsx view angle") and this was the first result:

Crazy coincidence there, honestly.

 

Here's the info from the linked page:

 

 

To adjust the 2D Panel viewing angle up or down, use: 

Down: Ctrl+Q 
Up: Ctrl+Shift+Q

If you wouldn't mind, there should be a little "Best Answer" or something click box to the right of each post.  If you could check that box so that anyone who comes across this post later on would know that your question was answered (and have the answer at the very top), that would be great!

Can't find the box "Best answer".Where is it supposed to be ?

I think it's normally over on the right side somewhere (I don't normally start threads, so I think I've only seen it once).  Looks like you or an admin found it, though!
