Unlike FSNavigator, FSC is an independent application. It is simply a limitation of the Windows operating system. When running an application in fullscreen mode, no other application can stay on top of it.

On page 22 of the manual there is a picture of the toolbar button that "activates the measuring tool for
distance and course." Press the button and then click, drag and release on the map. You will get a line showing heading and distance.

I have no idea what FSC X is. The latest version is 9.2 What version number shows up when you load FSC?

Try this pinned message at the top of the forum.

No. The button on the flight plan under OK that you use to select the starting spot. I've never tried the menu item. It might work.BUT after selecting your gate be sure to close the window before saving the flight plan.
-
A suggestion. Press the button to select the departure gate, select gate, press button again to close the gate window and then save the flight plan.

What WPTs are you using in your flight plan?
I used
OAIX KAVOG IVAGA SERGO PATOX HANGU DURKA KAVOG OAIX
and saw no problem.

The following paragraph is copied from the "Everyone Please Read" post pinned above. It may answer your question.
Note also that FlightSim Commander is distributed through two sources. If you download directly
from our website, then you need to register with SimMarket. If you buy the boxed version or
download version from Aerosoft, you will be registered during installation. You CANNOT use
the Aerosoft key for the SimMarket version and conversely you cannot use the key you receive
from SimMarket for the Aerosoft version. If you expect to get the discount (for owners of 8.x only)
you have to stick with the company where you bought/registered 8.x. That is, if you bought
8.x from Aerosoft you can only get the discount from Aerosoft. If you registered 8.x with SimMarket,
you get the discount only if you register 9.x with SimMarket

I recently downloaded a CHM file and it came with the following instructions:
If you are using Windows XP SP2 or later and you are going to download the documentation in CHM format, you need to "unblock" the file after downloading it by right-clicking on it in Windows Explorer and selecting the "Properties" menu item, then clicking on the "Unblock" button (on Windows Vista this is within the "Security" options). Failure to unblock the documentation file may result in error messages including "Navigation to the webpage was canceled" due to Windows security restrictions.
I don't know if the instruction was only for the file I downloaded or if it might apply to all CHM files. Give it a try, can't hurt.

Volker:
For the record, I normally run Vista 32 with UAC off. I get the error on closing.
I also manually ran the FSC.exe as administrator and also get the error on closing.

I am having the same problem as JJ after installing the 9.1 update. FSC appears to work fine until exiting. Upon exit I get the message that FSC has stopped working and that Windows is checking for a solution. My specs:
1. Flight Simulator version used : FSX
2. FSUIPC Registered copy Version 4.60
3. FS Commander 9.1 build 27-09-2011
4. Downloaded update version from your website
5. Operating System : Windows Vista 32

The best way to save the FSC flight plan to a PDF file is to use a PDF printer. If you don't have one you can get a free one at http://www.bullzip.com/

Maybe I don't understand the question but . . .
In the flight plan window under the "OK" and above the Keys icon there is an icon that looks like a spreadsheet. If you click it, it will bring up the waypoint window. Select the "gate assignment tab and highlight the gate that you want to start at. Click the OK button back in the flight plan window. Now when you load the flight plan in FSX you will be at the gate or ramp you selected.

Sascha:
By the time I fly that route again I'm sure Richard will have fixed the database. I suppose it is a good thing that it takes 2-3 years to find errors in Richard's data.
Thanks,

1. FSX Gold with Acceleration
2. FSUIPC 4.60a
3. FS Commander version 9.0 Build 23-11-2010
Database Manager version 9.0 Build 171110
4. Download version simMarket
5. Operating System Vista32
6. Airac Cycle 1013
I enter the following in the flight plan window
CYBL ROYST J502 SEA J20 YKM KYKM
and press OK.
The flight plan that is generated goes to ROYST but instead of continuing south to SEA, it heads north to ANN then a long round about back to SEA. After some experimenting I determined that if I changed the flight plan to CYBL ROYST J502 YYJ J502 SEA J20 YKM KYKM, it works fine except that the generated flight plan makes no mention of the J502 between YYJ and SEA. While the J502 shows on the FSC map and both YYJ and SEA indicate that they are on the J502, the flight plan generator does not seem to recognize the J502 between YYJ and SEA.
Can someone please give this flight plan a try and see if you get the same result? I don't need a work around as I can simply plot the way points and ignore the airway. However, if others are seeing the same result, this may be indicative of a larger problem.

The only reason the FL choice is there is that FS requires it for its flight plan, and it has to be in the flight plan for FS' internal ATC.

But isn't that the point? I use FSC to create my flight plan which I then load into FSX and Radar Contact both of which need the Cruise altitude for proper functioning. I would hate to have to manually modify the FSC produced flight plan for the proper altitude. If you elect to make a change to accommodate France and Brazil, I suggest setting the initial value based on the east/west odd/even criteria as you do now, but allow it to be adjusted in 1000 foot increments.

Sascha:
Your intention was to create a file with all the data used in an FSC flight plan so that the end user would be able to create whatever printed output was desired. However, this assumes that the end user has a knowledge of HTML, CSS or whatever other language can convert the XML data file to the desired page for printing. If the end user does not have this knowledge, the XML file is really no help.
The "normal" print flight plan will create a nice formatted page. All the bullzip printer does is direct the printed output to a pdf file instead of the printer. This file can be opened later (using Adobe Reader, FS9 kneeboard . . .) without the overhead of FSC. I assumed that this was what Duke60 was looking for.
I am not aware of any missing data or any other problem with your XML file.

Duke60:
If you simply want a copy of what would have printed if you selected "print flightplan," have you considered saving the flight plans as a .pdf file? There are a number of free programs that install a printer that creates a pdf file of what would otherwise have been printed. I tested the bullzip pdf printer and it works fine with Vista. It is at bullzip.com. A google search will undoubtly give you more choices.

The official version from Navigraph contains a read me file with installation instructions.

The fix is that you will have to learn how to land the plane yourself. FSNAV does not autoland your aircraft.

FSC 921 And Radar Contact 4.3

Radar Contact does not follow either flight plan as you approach your destination. At about 40 miles from the destination, RC will pick a runway and will vector you to it for landing. The RC runway choice is based on AI landing, ILS, weather and possibly some other criteria. If you wish to fly a specific approach, you must select that approach from the RC menu when you contact approach. You will then have to fly the approach on your own. RC will not contact you again until you are on final
