Following your excellent instructions on the video. I have a problem when stretching the window before moving it to the G1000 screen. The window stretches both vertically and horizontally at the same time while i am pulling the right side to the right. Any ideas on how to fix?

XPlane recently changed the behavior in the 12.1 release (not sure exactly which beta version). I have been meaning to file a feature request (or bug report) to restore the old functionality (or provide a full screen option), but I haven’t had the time :(

@@StudentPilot4Life ok thanks. I am not going bonkers! Anxious awaiting your update!

@@crazyhorse088 I have filed a bug report using XPlane's bug report form (www.x-plane.com/x-plane-bug-report-form/). Considering user interface issues are usually not prioritized by Laminar, I am not holding my breath for this to be fixed anytime soon. Here's a video that I sent to Laminar demonstrating the issue: photos.app.goo.gl/VvzjdtoSGDVegcvi9

@@StudentPilot4Life My tech support coach found a fix for the problem and my FSB G1000 suite is working fine. I think he found an article on RealSimGear and applied it to my FlightSimBuilder suite. It had something to do with the XPlane Output/preferences/Miscellaneous.prf file. He changed some values in the code and also moved the monitors and centered them below the main monitor to move each screen down. He also clicked the check mark to turn back ON snap windows in settings. Not sure if I'm making much sense here, but bottom line the panels are working! Hopefully Laminar will fix the issue. Thanks for reporting the bug.

@@crazyhorse088 That’s great to know! When you say ‘tech support coach’, are you referring to FSB tech support? Or something else?
