    Split screen engine monitor display

    I have a single screen AF5600 system. Accordingly I use the split screen mode almost exclusively. When displaying an approach plate I many times have to turn off the engine display so that I can see more of the approach plate. I would like to request an option that would shift the engine info to the left so that the entire right side can show an unobstructed approach plate. The shift could be done in a manner similar to what is shown on page 45 of the v15 manual. If other single screen users would like this option please chime in.

    Thanks for your consideration.

    I would also like to see this, for the approach plates -- on the approach, the only engine info I normally look at are my MAP and RPM.

    (Also single-screen, 5600T)

    That's a nice feature request. I've added it to our feature list for software to consider.

    Hi Shawn,

    Just a followup - did this make the “todo” list? If so, when might it be available?

    V16

    Did the "Split screen engine monitor display" request make it into the V16 software? If so, how do I activate it?

    This feature has had no traction at this time. I'll ping the request.

    I really like the split screen engine monitor display when an approach plate is being displayed. Thanks for doing that. Now I've found that there are times when I wish that the left side partial engine display was available when showing the normal map or sectional. Any chance you could make the left side partial engine display an option? That is, make the engine monitor display on/off switch into a 3 way toggle: on -left side partial - off.

    If other users would like this option please chime in.

    Thanks,
    Dick
