Plan-G / Airport Diagram Issue
February 05, 2019, 01:40:27 AM
Hey Tim,
Love Plan-G! I think you're a genius.

I know you know about the airport Diagram issue. I have read the posts saying to resize the whole window but my diagrams extend beyond the boundaries of the window so that I can't see the ends of the runways with the runway numbers. When I resize the window, the airport diagram is larger but still cropped the same way as when the window was smaller.

Thanks again for Plan-G.

Sorry Tim but I'm not getting it. What am I missing? If I update from Navigraph, Plan-G will read it but how does that help if I'm using ancient data in P3D. That's similar to what I'm doing now, looking at real world maps on SkyVector, and flying with the ancient or fictitious data in the sims. With Plan-G, I at least have a map that corresponds with the data in whichever sim I'm using. It also sounds like I can get the most current data from Navigraph for X-Plane. But I just spent money to buy P3D with scenery and now have to deal with ancient crap for data!!!  >:(

I found HELP and the manual. Would be easier to find better on a tab next to view. Maybe save you some tech support work.  ;)

Thank you again for Plan -G and your help.

First I'd like to say that Plan-G is an impressive piece of work! Brilliant!

I am new to flight simming but I would like to make a few suggestions. As someone who is using flight simming to train for real world flying, there is much conflicting info in the various sims and real world data and I think you are on to something even bigger.  I would like to see Plan-G as a bridge to compile and update the sim databases with current info from the original sources: FAA for the USA. You can obviously extract the necessary data from the sims. Can you recreate corrected and updated database files to send back to the sims? I have copied link below as sample from FAA. Sorry but not familiar with the rest of the world's agencies.

Maybe also add a help button that links to and opens the manual.

Keep up the good work Tim!

Can't find a scenery.cfg file in P3D v3. Hints please?
