Customize Parking Position - Apply Button Stays Greyed-Out
« on: July 22, 2019, 02:47:01 pm »
Hi!

Loving GSX but my brother is having problems with his setup - GSX / Level 2 on P3D v.4.3 with the latest FSDT Live Update.

When he loads up the Just Flight L-1011 TriStar Professional, at most gates GSX reports that the gate is too small.  I told him to go into the customize parking positions menu and click the little aircraft next to Wingspan to increase the maximum allowed wingspan.  When he does this, the value in the field changes but the Apply button does not become active - it stays greyed out.

This is the case for all fields in the customize parking positions dialogue - Apply never becomes active when a field value changes.

This sounds like a permissions problem - P3D is running as Administrator. 

Does he need to run GSX as administrator too? 

What is the correct security properties for the %APPDATA%\Virtuali folder?

Thanks all,

Dave.

As a user, you are always supposed to be able to write in that folder, which is under you user account. They are also reset correctly when installing GSX so, if you suspect they might be wrong for any reason, remove the folder and reinstall GSX.

Make a backup of the GSX and Airplane folders under %APPDATA%\Virtuali before removing it, since they store all your scenery and airplane customizations.
