4K monitor, 2D panels are very tiny
4K monitor, 2D panels are very tiny
I can't read the 2D panels because of their resolution, is there anything I can do to improve this?

Hello,
Yes, what you can do is change the "pixel_size=" field for these panels in the 'panel.cfg' file which is located here: ...SimObjects\Airplanes\A2A_C182\panel (the first bit of the path will depend on whether it's an FSX or P3D installation etc.)
So to make the shift+3 'controls' panel twice as big for example, you'd edit this section as follows:
[Window02]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=321,311
pixel_size=642,622 // 321,311 original value
window_pos= 0.51, 0.2
As always with such edits, please back up the original first. And bear in mind the panels won't tessellate on screen as originally designed if you try this. In other words, they'll overlap if you got multiple panels open.
Just FYI, as 4K monitors are now much more commonplace, the upcoming Bonanza will include a feature that allows you to resize the 2-D panels for higher screen resolutions.
Thanks,
Nick
