Post subject:  COM frequencies on 'Hints' window no longer shown?

I always used to see airport COM frequencies on the 'hints' window (press 'TAB'), but now I only see my keyboard shortcuts. Can't see a way in Options (or here) to get this back (it was quite useful)?

Thank you.

Is this an X-Plane thing?

I doubt it, as I have been using PF3 with X-Plane alone for over 18 months now: I always had the COM frequencies show until yesterday. They just disappeared, Tried several airports... Odd.

It's not a pf3 feature

:shock: :shock: I don't understand that. I have always had COM frequencies for the local airport showing in the info 'TAB' window, below the keyboard shortcuts. Only yesterday did they disappear. Can't have been a 3rd. party 'extra' surely??

Are you talking about the PF3 Display Utility?

I don't know, what's that exactly? I don't think so. When I hit the TAB key I get a separate little window up with the assigned keyboard shortcuts at the top. I always had the local COM frequencies shown at the bottom too, but not now.

I am so used to seeing them there that I am pretty sure that they were present in FS9 as well. I assumed they were the 'norm'.

Never known of any such feature so I guess it must be x-plane

OK, well I must accept that, since it comes 'from the horse's mouth'! I must have got used to this since I have been flying X-Plane, though it seems to me the feature was always there. It wasn't in any case quite as useful as it could have been, as the frequencies were often wrong for (i.e. differed from) X-Plane, but still...

So, I tried the COM frequency option in the advanced options instead... I see nothing come up though (I have the value set to 30). Where am I supposed to see the COM frequencies? Perhaps this won't work in X-Plane...

Thanks.

Sorry, which option exactly are you talking about?
