Panels optimized for 1600x1200?

You might be pleased to see that the screenshots for FS-X are all in 1600x1200 resolution :-)

Hi BertYes, I have experimented with this before but the problem is that many panels DO extend to the top of window so without major surgery (via FS Panel Studio) for instance, to every individual panel, I have not yet found a universal panacea.Living with the loss of say 24 mm vertically with a window must be set against the angst of the above so until a better solution comes along that is what I must do.Another associated problem I notice concerns the use of widescreen (16 x 9) monitors for fs use.In a recent review of a 707 by Mike T he shows several screenshots of the panel with such a monitor. I wonder if I am hypersensitive to the aspect ratio distortion since it spoils the whole image for me.When I visit houses which have a widescreen TV I notice that many still keep the 16 x 9 aspect to view 4 x 3 images and are unperturbed at the effect so I guess I am a minority in being sensitive to it.regardsken

Ken,I have not found a solution for panels that reach to the top either and am "living with" the distortion, which I admit you do get used to over time. The widescreen format, however, opens up new possibilities, certainly in the virtual cockpit! Lets see if FS-X is taking this into account...
