April 9, 20215 yr I want to set the default user aircraft icon to a helicopter instead of an airplane. How do I do that? Danny
April 9, 20215 yr Here is exactly explanation how to customize LNM: https://www.littlenavmap.org/manuals/littlenavmap/release/2.6/en/CUSTOMIZE.html For aircraft - look at ICONS 62.4 section 🙂 Regards, Piotr Never give up ... - here are details of the whip-round: https://zrzutka.pl/en/pewr2d -> to help my younger son fights against Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (blood cancer).
April 9, 20215 yr Author ppgas, thanks for the reply. I was aware of the customize html you referenced. My problem is I don't see a process for actually assigning/changing the default icon used for the user aircraft. I generally fly a helicopter, however, LNM only should an icon of a fixed wing as my aircraft. Perhaps I just don't understand the instructions in the html. Either way, if you know how to do this would be kind enough to share the process? Danny
April 9, 20215 yr If you asked about the yellow icon which is displayed when LNM is connected to simulator, the icons should be kept in these files: -*_user.svg -*_ground_user.svg It's enough overwrite them by the files with shapes you want to get and copy the files to home directory, under Windows it should be C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\ABarthel That's all 🙂 Regards, Piotr ps. in general on my side (Linux+ X-Plane11) LNM automatically detects type and display correct icon.

The OP talks about the user aircraft icon. What simulator do you use and what heliports show up wrong? Alex Alex' Projects: Little Navmap

I believe the reason after looking more into it is because the developer of the heliports do not have the runways set to "none". I decided to just place a userpoint icon over the heliport to signify a heliport. LouP

I decided to just place a userpoint icon over the heliport to signify a heliport. Most likely. Some leave short dummy runways around. Alex Alex' Projects: Little Navmap
