• 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.

Arno,

It might just be that I don't know some option setting that would help.

I'm wondering, if it wasn't too much bother, if you could increase the zoom in amount.

I often want to look at some small object to see what I've messed up with the textures on it. In the case of the object in the image, using the highlight selected in the material editor doesn't make it easier to see anything.

The object in the image is ~20 cm wide. It is zoomed in with MCX maximized. The image is of the entire MCX window.

Hi,

Let me check, I have seen this with big objects as well.
 
Using MCX as a repaint monitor for an infinitesimal instrument face seems ambitious. I believe the zoom scale might be affected by the model radius and I have overcome this limitation, from whatever cause, by temporarily scaling my model up, to examine small details, or down, to see the entire model. It takes less time to do so, than it does to post about it and the procedure has no deleterious effect on the model whatsoever.
