Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:
- Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
- Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
- Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
- Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
- Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
- Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.
Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.
By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

I did the same thing. Most likely you are accidentally selecting the vertical arrow and pushing the runway down.
If you go to the inspector for the project, select "View/gizmo" you can manually set the height of the runway.

Sitting Pilots?
The up arrow only works if you turn off snap to ground. And I'm sure it works for all objects. It should.
(There is no "snap to ground" for a runway sadly... don't know why not, I want the runway to drape over the ground in many/most situations)

Once it's started to move up or down I can rarely get it right again.
I make a note of all of the details, delete the runway, create a new one without touching the terraform arrow and reenter all the details. It usually snaps to ground level with no trouble at all and I don't touch it again.

Is there any way to get lat long visible on screen?
that's just it it doesn't do it every time. As flying's cool said you can set the altitude in Gizmo andit worked for me by typing in the altitude. I have also managed to lift 2 people off the ground and sit them at the picnic table! Progress!

Did you get the models Neil?
Yes but in say the Church medium folder the only files inthe folder are- nb-church-medium.bin, nb-church-medium.gltf and nb-church-medium.xml and I have no idea where the common texture is. I placed the folders in the Community folder but nothing is visible in developer. Thanks Neil

I haven’t placed them anywhere Neil, just converted them. All of the texture for all of the models are in the textures folder. If you want them placed somewhere let me know. If you want to do it yourself, if you place all of the folders in the zip file ModelLib folder in your project, then "build" them. This will add them to the list of objects in scenery. (You will need to restart the sim after this). Then if you go back into your project, in the scenery objects list, filter it by typing nb- in the filter and you will see the objects and you can place them where you like (remembering to save the scenery and build again).
