Changing latitude/longitude readout in fsx and p3d

Featured Replies

Hi all,

  My search is not finding this information so I'm asking here, if anyone knows the lines to add to the fsx.cfg or p3d.cfg that displays the longitude/latitude readout on the screen when you use Shift + z    I'd like to be able to see either decimal readout or degrees readout by having both in the cfg and commenting out the one I'm not using.

 

Thanks in advance! 

 

Rob

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Here are some options for the "Main" section of the fsx.cfg file entry:

 

//LatLonFormat=Degrees      // Displays degrees.xxxxxx
//FractionalLatLonDigits=6

LatLonFormat=Minutes       // Displays  degrees.minutes.x
FractionalLatLonDigits=0

//LatLonFormat=Seconds     //Displays degrees.minutes.seconds
//FractionalLatLonDigits=2
