MortenS 0 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Just got FSC9, but whatever I do all windows I open in FSC will disappear behind the main window (map view). This makes it hard to select STAR/SID etc. The same happens with the GPS window, but that stays on top of all other programs/windows; except FSC. If I uncheck FSC always on top, the GPS window will not stay on top of FSX.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Hello Morten, When you select stay on top it wont matter what window you open in FSC it will go behind the main map window so you need to uncheck it for working with the tools and menus. When running FSX with the small GPS window is this with FSX in Windowed Mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I minimize FSC the GPS window will be on top of FSX, if FSC is not set to stay on top, but as soon as I click on the FSX window, the GPS window will drop behind the FSX window.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Hello Morten, I dont believe the small GPS Window can sit on top of the main Flight sim window but off to the side. Will however check this here to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MortenS 0 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 Kinda strange that the waypoint window and the FP window both stays on top of and inside FSC, but the "Save FP", "select SID/STAR/TRANSITION" etc all drops behind FSC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Hello Morten, You shouldn't need to keep the FSC Window on top when actually making your flight plan as the other windows at that time are more important, when it comes to using it as a moving map when flying then its more important for FSC to stay on top.

Yes, but I still think it's kinda strange that not all windows in FSC behave in the same way. The solution is not ideal, but it'll work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edkap 1 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Is there any way to resize the main map window in FSC9? I've tried everything but no luck. Very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very frustrating. Don't understand what you mean, the FSC Window can be resized like any other window in Windows. Otherwise please show a screenshot of what you mean.

edkap 1 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 No, I cannot change the size of the main map window in FSC9. It seems to be locked at full screen. Well.... when I switch from full window to minimize, it gets about an inch smaller, but that is it. I cannot change it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted December 26, 2011 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 26, 2011 So this is not a FSC problem: the icons in the upright corner should look similar to this: Full window resized: If you don't get icons like that something is wrong with your windows setup.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hello Edkap, Also try grabbing hold of the Window and moving it inwards towards the middle of the screen a little, might be that its not set to full screen but you have enlarged it to full screen size.

Volker Heine 18 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hi Shaun, meanwhile, the user has contacted me via e-mail. The mistake was, that a resizing of the window is not possible, if you connected to the FS. Happy New Year, Shaun. Kind Regards, Volker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
