Displaying Gates

[dazza1980 1]

Started using this neat bit of kit since moving over to V4.2.

I have a question, I use to use Flight Sim commander which allowed me to view the gates that were in the sim at each airport, now I may be missing something, but does Little Navmap have that ability? I always like to study the map first to determine which gate is suitable, and for taxiing purposes. Using online charts isn't a solution, as sometimes I fly into default airports.

Thanks!

Sure it does. It also shows tooltips with size, type, etc.

The user aircraft and the gates are drawn to scale at the lowest zoomlevel so you can easily check if your aircraft fits in. Or you can compare the gate size shown in the tooltip with wing span of the aircraft shown in the "User Aircraft" window.

That looks much more detailed than what I am seeing, I have the level set to +5, yet all I see are outlines for the runways only:-

You selected menu "Scenery Library" -> "Use navigraph for all features".  Check "Use Navigraph for Navaids and Procedures" to fix this and do not forget to load the scenery library.

A lot of people run into this. I guess I should add a warning dialog.
