Map Elevation Shade

[CCole 0]

Hi,

while planning flights in British Columbia, I realized that it would be helpful if I could shade all elevations above say 10,000ft, so I could try to find a way through the labyrinth of mountains whilre staying below 10,000ft.

Would this be possible without too much of an effort?

Like this in the X-Plane G1000?

No idea how to do this yet. I had to dig deep into third party code for this.

The depiction yes, but not neccessarily in flight, more like flight planning. I thought maybe there was an simple way, as there is already an elevation model overlaid on the map where you get the "mouseover" elevation. Mabe there was a way to colour an overlay based on this.

But anyway, no worries. If it's just me, that doesn't justify the effort.
