2D panel squashed

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I think I've seen a post about this quite awhile ago, but I cant find it now.
Anyway, when you start a flight and you go into the 2d panel, its squashed up to the top of the screen. On the aircraft I normally use this isn't a problem, you just grab the bottom of the screen and drag it back down. I cant seem to do this with the JustFlight  Widgeon.
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers.
Rick.
(Yes, I know, the vc is the place to be! I do find the odd use for the 2d still though!)

	I had a similar problem with one AC (my favorite, of course) and I've had to go to manually launching FS instead of letting CP launch it. I don't know why, but that avoids the problem for me. I think there's an option on the settings screen to turn manual launch on (click the office desk).

	Ah, I think your right. Its an odd, bug mind you. I wouldn't expect CP to be able to do that sort of thing. I'll give it ago later. Cheers, Rick.

	Ahh, Got it now! Launching manually didn't make any difference for me. What I have found, however, is that you can get around the problem quite easily. When in the 2D view, drag the whole image down until the bottom edge of the panel is at the bottom edge of your screen, then click and hold on the top edge of the panel and drag it up to enlarge it. This is exactly the opposite to the other aircraft I have the problem with. Now, the next problem, how to stop the Widgeon bouncing down the runway on landing! I hope this helps anyone else with the problem. Rick, UK.
