• 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.

MakeMDL screen not fully opening.

Has anyone ever had this problem:
I recently installed MakeMDL on my newer computer (WinXP_SP3 –FS2004). When I open MakeMDL the control screen is not opening fully to the right and to the bottom. It cuts off several of the check boxes at the bottom of the option screen. Other than that MakeMDL seems to be working. I have messed with the .cfg file but no help.
Thanks for any help.

Could it be you have increased the font size in windows? Sometimes that gives issues in applications.

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I double checked and they are set to normal size 96.
I have tried both versions of MakeMDL (ver8 - ver9) both have the same problem.
Darn!

My MakeMDL workaround:
The last couple of items that have check boxes, at the bottom, are uncheckable. The one that I use the most is Night Map on/off. So it is in and out of MakeMDL config file to turn it on and off before compiling.
