I've noticed since I installed FSCopilot and FSInn that I now have that stupid blue bar on the top of my screen when I'm in flight sim.. You know the same one that's up there when you look at a pic or a screenshot on your puter..? I know there's a way to make that dissapear but I can't remember how to do it.. I never had that on there before, but now I have that blue bar up there all the time that says "Microsoft flightsimulator X" on it with the red X to close the sim and all that.. I don't want that up there.. I just want to hit escape when I want to end a flight or exit flight sim.. Makes it hard to take screenshots and because that stupid bar is up there.. Anyone know how to get rid of it..?

Press alt + enter and it should go full screen again, that is unless copilot or fsinn have to have fsx in window mode

Thanks Dave.. I'll give that a try. I probably inadvertently hit a wrong button or something while I was trying to get all this stuff to work.. lol.. I sure hope FSX does'nt have to run in window mode or I'm not gonna be to pleased with that.. l
Thanks again..

Hey that fixed it Dave.. Thanks for the help. I figured it was something simple I just could'nt remember how to get rid of it.. And FSX works like a dream in full view. It was'nt like that before I installed all the stuff I needed for DVA. That's why it scared me a little.. But all's well now. Thanks again Dave..

Dale, I'm pretty sure that blue bar has nothing to do with FSinn...can you snap a pic of it, just so I can send it back to the DCU dev team. thanks
Andy

Yeah Dave helped me out with that Andrew.. I feel like and idiot. lol. I knew there was a simple fix but could'nt remember how to fix it. I kept trying to push f11 which gives you full screen. But now that that's gone and everything's working and I now have Copilot in the little addon button It still does'nt work and I have no idea why. I can hear voices but I can't talk back to anyone. I guess I need to try to learn more about it. Thanks everyone..

you prob do not have it set correctly, or you are using the older version. you need 1.7 and 1.3

Yeah.. I have the proper updated versions.. I guess I just don't have it set up right. But it's like greek to me I have no idea what all that stuff means in the control panel for setting it up.. If anyone knows how to set it up to work properly I'd sure appreciate a heads up.. I can use all of it.. I can bring up the radar, I can bring up the flight plan paper, I can switch radio frequencies and hear the controlers talking to pilots etc. But I can't talk to anyone. I have a head set with a hands free mic and it works great with yahoo messenger or teamspeak. I'm sure I just don't have it set up right.. Are you supposed to set a button to activate the mic..? Or is it voice activated..? I don't have a clue.. lol

Wow Andrew.. There's a lot to soak up in there. But I'm studying my butt off. I think I'm starting to get a handle on it, kind of.. I think I need to reinstall my teamspeak and reset it up so I can know all the info I need to activate it in my FSInn. I've never messed with this kind of stuff before so it's been quite a hair puller trying to get it all working and then UNDERSTAND it all.. lol
I've flown in the sim for a few years now but always just had to push the corresponding button when addressing ATC. In here I'm actually going to have to know what I'm doing. So not only do I have to learn the software but I also need to do somemore studying in the learning center about all the terminalogy etc. I'm gettin there. Thanks for your help and patience guys.
