iFly GPS Forum

After loading the new 7.5.18 last week, I set up to use the portrait mode for my southbound trip - everything worked just great. Getting used to the new button placement was easy.

My next leg (N47 - OQU) was ENE bound, so I reset to landscape mode, but the underlying sectional would not display the top half of the screen! Tried power off/power on, reset to portrait mode/landscape mode, no joy. Finally, out of desperation punched the screen a few times in the empty area and finally got the whole screen to display.

Any thoughts?

Robert, your departure airport is on the very top of the Washington North sectional. If you we're looking at that one instead of New York South, it would appear half the screen wasn't painting. Touching the "blank" area would force the other sectional to load, or it would switch when you fly off Washington. Any chance this is the culprit?

Also, BTW, it should not be necessary to completely power-off your iFly when toggling between landscape / portrait mode, simply restarting the aviation app will suffice.

Thanks!

Robert,

I think it would be best if you contacted us at the office so we can troubleshoot you on the phone in more detail. Forums are great, but sometimes challenging to get into detailed troubleshooting that may take some higher, multi-step troubleshooting into the device contents.

Ed, Walter or myself should be able to dig into this a little deeper. We'll get you fixed up, I am sure of it.

Can you replicate this again and again?
