In the new P3DV4 version there seems to be no way to access the backseat TV screens in the reduced poly VC model. In previous versions you could display 2D popups of the TV screens from the VIEWS menu. These menu choices aren't available any more.

Hi Kevin,

Just selecting the reduced poly VC model in the config tool shouldn't cause the 2D popups to disappear. 

Can you check that you have these entries in the Tornado panel.cfg file?

Thanks
Martyn

Hi Martyn,

Yes those entries are there. It’s the menu to select them that is missing. Is there a shortcut?

Kevin - 
On the menu bar of P3D v4, go to the aircraft tab, then click on instrument panel, where you should see all of the 2D panel options.

Hi Peter,

Thanks, I had been looking in the VIEWS menu where INSTRUMENT PANEL used to be in FSX. The differences in the menu layout still catch me out.
