Really sorry for reply so late, all is working, the missing setting was the speed in GE.Hi Fabrizio,
Don't uncheck "Flight Simulator Tracker". That's the KML file created by EarthProxy that Google Earth opens.
This is what I use, together with a Fly-To speed of 4 to 4.5:

If you have other questions, why don't you send me a p.m. in this forum so we can do further troubleshooting offline.
Hope it works,
Bob
The black window suggests that the sim cannot find the Compound_Rotation.xml gauge. Usually, the reason is a spelling error in panel.cfg (extra "spaces" are often the culprit) or Compound_Rotation.xml is in the wrong folder.the GE VIEW windows appears black and Google Earth didn't show my plane position, I have checked the spelling in the panel.cfg lines and everything seems to be alright.
If XMLTools is not installed, GE View will still operate, but without pan view capability - the view will always be forward.
I've never tried a VC-only aircraft. Suggest you try the Minipanel configuration for Compound_Rotation.xml. BobI have a question about: does it works also for model which have VC only?
Assume you mean single monitor system with Google Earth window maximized ... I would try re-sizing the flight sim window to make it very small and drag it into the lower right corner, covering the words, "Google Earth"Hi Bob
Quick question is there a trick to getting fsx sounds to play when GEVIEW is in full screen

That would be great, but, I'm sorry, it cannot be done. I have seen a YouTube vid where someone set up 2 windows with a flight sim window on bottom showing a portion of the cockpit panel and the Google Earth window on top showing outside scenery. I'll let you decide if it looks ok or not. Gauges can be made to be displayed in Google Earth - that's what Earth's internal flight simulator does. But we don't know how to superimpose a flight sim panel on top of the Google Earth window.That means having in foreground the aircraft panel and in background (where you should see the simulator world/scenery) GE on the same simulator window.
Hi Bob,That would be great, but, I'm sorry, it cannot be done.

But we don't know how to superimpose a flight sim panel on top of the Google Earth window.
Nevertheless, when looking at Google Earth whilst flying, I still need to know some important flight parameters like airspeed, vertical speed, altitude and radar alt... that's the reason the blue GE VIEW window is included.
Again, the motivation for the GE VIEW thing is the HttpX module which facilitates gauge development in a browser, which is where my interest lies. The Google Earth application is a fun by-product of that effort, but we aren't putting a lot more work into it at this point.

@rpmc : Bob, with the latest version of Google Earth Pro (7.3.0.3832), HttpX 2.0 and EarthProxy 1.2 no longer work.
The gauge still works, but when you press Start, Google Earth flies to the FSX position, but the camera stays pointing downward, and it jumps continually up and down.
For what it's worth, that Korean application FSGoogleEarthView 3 suffers exactly the same way.
I hope you can find the time to figure out how to get Earth Proxy working again with the new Google Earth Pro.
