Side menu not working after latest update, wing lights not correct.

[robbietp1]

Hi Folks, 

I've just updated to the latest version, the wing illumination lights are not actually lighting from the bulb, it just remains black despite the wings being lit. 

I also can no longer use the menu for preferences, ground handling etc, it simply  wont open when I click on the menu I need. 

Seems like more issues appeared with this fix update. 

Cheers.

I cannot replicate this all. Works perfectly here, and have not seen a single other report about this.

Are you using some kid of UI scaling in X-Plane?

There is an option in the preferences menu to disable the side bump-out menus.

If you toggle that option, you can´t get back to the preferences window to undo your choice, but you can assign a button or key to "toggle the menu" (I am not sure what the exact name is).

Hi Cam, I've reloaded the A/C a few times and the issue has gone away. Wasn't using any UI Scaling or anything like that. As you said if the issue hasnt been reported by anyone else it must have been on my end. 

Thanks

I just updated the aircraft to the latest version and can confirm I have the same issue, the left-hand menu doesn't pop out anymore for me. I'll try to restart etc and we'll see..

I'm on a 4k screen so I run UI scaling at 150%, but I tried toggling it between 100% and 150% to no avail.

Also I don't see the IXEG menus in the Xplane menu, (looked under plugins.. etc, I don't see a way to force-bring-up the window, is there?)

(I bound a key to the gui menu and I'm able to make it appear that way, so it's not a blocker for me.)

Did you reload the plane after doing so?

Under Gizmo for whatever reason. (Every plane should use a top-level menu bar nowadays IMO.)
