Flight1 C172 and Popup Panels

Recommended Posts

Guest SuperFortress

I've noticed an odd problem with FSX and the Flight1 C172. When I try to enable some of the popup screens like the GPS with SHIFT+F3 or the other panels with SHIFT+F4 or SHIFT+F5 etc, the screen will flicker for a moment but the panel will not come up. I had this problem about a month ago and I resolved it by re-installing the C172 add-on but now the problem has returned again. I don't feel like reinstalling the add-on each time this happens. Can anyone offer some suggestions? Thank you.

I had this - it was caused by the panels `popping under` instead of `popping up`. What I did wsa select another default aircraft, then switch back to the F1 172. Shouldn't need to reinstall!Allcott

It had something to do with a missing or corrupt font file. I reinstalled the C172 and I believe that resolved the issue.
