Showing competition number
« on: July 07, 2008, 07:52:24 pm »
I use the latest version and everything runs perfectly fine, except : competition number is not showing. If i activate : options, 3D view, : show viewing direction : competition number is showing and viewing direction on the same location. As such competition number is unreadable. Before take off : competition number shows OK and when animation starts then viewing direction is showing on same location. If viewing direction is not active : competition number is not showing. Am I doing something wrong ?. All other features show well : terrain, symbol used, turn points, vector maps etc...

Kind regards

I can confirm I have the same problem. Has it something to do with Vista?, Both my Vista computers (laptop and desktop) show the same problem.

When I pauze the 3D playback and  zoom in to the point the sailplane symbol fills the computer screen, the competition number can be read again. During the zoom in it seems that the competition number is written multipple times over each other. Zoomed out to normal the competition number is just a black square.

BTW also the course indicator in the top middle of the screen is unreadable, course and competition number are written over eachother?.

Thanks,

Marco

I've got the exact same thing. Have you found anything to get rid of these problems?
I'm running on Vista Ultimate 32-bit.

Regards,
Peter.

Good morning

I am not sure if you received my mail and therefore herewith the solution :

Under OPTIONS, click on the FLIGHTS label and than switch the glider symbol to competition number. Seems to work fine

I was having the same problem.  I've found two different solutions:

1.  Set the Windows color depth to 16-bit, instead of 32-bit.  Right-click somewhere on the desktop, select Personalize -> Display Settings -> Colors -> Medium (16-bit).  This works great for SeeYou, but might make the colors in photos and videos less realistic.  Andrej please note: there might be a good hint here in fixing the problem!

2.  In SeeYou, uncheck Options -> 3D  View -> Show Viewing Direction.  This just makes the contest number and the viewing direction display go away in the 3D view, so they aren't a problem anymore.

I can confirm that #1 works on our computers - thank you! Nobody has suggested that until now!
